ROSSO DEL VIVO
IGT Toscana Rosso
2018
Grapes were selected from the vineyards in our care situated in a narrow valley carved into the northern flank of Monte Amiata. The valley carries the swift cold waters of the Vivo on their way to the Val D’Orcia 300m below and benefits from a favourable microclimate influenced by the mountain.
Rosso del Vivo 2018 is a medium-bodied, elegant wine that balances fine acidity and velvety tannins with black fruits, Tuscan herbs, racy morello cherry, delicate strawberry, kirsch and hints of dark chocolate and crême brullê.
