| Vintage: | 2019 |
|---|---|
| Description: | Sangiovese and Colorino make up the Il Nero di Casanova blend. The name means the black one and refers not only to the deep dark color of the wine, but also to how old-timers in Tuscany call their red wine. The wine is brooding in color, with bing cherry that comes through on the nose and palate. Chewy, ripe, rich and beautifully balanced, it has tremendous texture and a very long finish. A superb vintage for Tuscany - classic with tons of fruit and the perfect balance of tannic structure and acidity. 13.5% alcohol by volume Total production in 2004: 65,000 bottles Location: Terricciola, Tuscany, near Pisa Soil: Calcareous Average Altitude: 250 meters above sea level Exposure: South Fermentation: Alcoholic fermentation for 7-8 days at controlled temperature, malolactic fermentation in oak.
