2017 Villa Podernovo Toscano Rosso Aliotto Organic, Tuscany, Italy

Grapes - 60% Sangiovese, 40% Cabernet, Merlot and other local grapes.

Region - Tuscany, Italy

Winemaking - Organic farming methods, 10-15 days macertions, and 12 months in barriques, followed by a min of 4 months in bottle.

What it tastes like - It has a luminous ruby red colour. On the nose it displays refined notes of morello cherries and fruit preserved in brandy, along with tones of aromatic herbs and minerals. It is a well-structured but pleasantly rounded wine, thanks to its elegant, well-calibrated tannins. Overall, it reveals excellent balance, an appealing tanginess and a mellow finish.
