Description
Giuseppe Castiglioni bought a single hectare of vineyard in Tuscany in 1974.  His dream was to make elegant and rich wines from the native Sangiovese grapes among others. His son would convert the estate to organic viticulture in 1988. The estate now spans over 100 hectares of vineyards with their commitment to continue creating extraordinary wines.  Grapes are hand-picked in 9 kg crates.  Aged for 16 months in fine and extra-fine frained French oak barriques. Organic.
Taste

On the palate, the wine is perfectly balanced with very finely-textured tannins and good acidity. The flavours stay persistant and long, pleasantly tightening up on the finish.
Food Matching

Very vegetable-friendly. Highly recommended with creamy baked cumin- spiced pumpkin mac n' cheese or bet braised black caviar lentils with roasted carrots and vegan feta.
