Piaggia Il Sasso Carmignano DOCG 2021

The Carmignano of the Vannucci family has been a guarantee of the denomination for decades, a red of extraordinary elegance and structure, which was able to immediately establish itself, for its energetic and at the same time soft and graceful character.
"Il Sasso" is a blend animated mainly by Sangiovese and flanked by low quantities of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot.
In the glass it appears with an intense and deep ruby red.
The bouquet is full and quite complex, led by aromas of plum, cherry, blackberry, morello cherry and red fruits, together with hints of woody, tobacco and chocolate.
The sip is rich, warm and round, decorated with the typical refinement exhibited by Sangiovese and fine, velvety tannins.

The fermentation is carried out with natural yeasts and the subsequent maceration on the skins lasts at least 18-20 days.
Subsequently, "Il Sasso" is transferred to small French oak containers, where it carries out both malolactic fermentation and aging for a period of at least 15 months.
At the end of the period, it refines for another 6 months in the bottle.
