Vintage

2023

 17.00

Ciliegiolo and Sangiovese grapes are harmoniously blended to make this smooth and well-rounded Rosé wine which boasts a fresh, mineral finish with distinct hints of white peach and cherry. The grapes are harvested early in order to obtain the right acidic balance and processed separately: the Ciliegiolo grapes have a richer pulp and finer skin, bringing a distinct character and complexity to the wine.
