Il Castellaccio

Somatico Pugnitello Tuscany IGT Il Castellaccio

Red wine, 75 cl, Tuscany, Italy, 2019

A rarity from Tuscany. The grape's name derives from its shape, which resembles a small fist. Ruby red with violet reflections; dark berries on the nose and palate; hints of gingerbread, figs, and balsamic notes complement the fruity bouquet. Soft, sweet tannins, linger on the palate. Extremely age-worthy.

The Castellaccio

"A sip from the past, with a view to the future," this is how the corporate philosophy of Il Castellaccio can be summarized. Valénte and Dinostro are the concrete result of their project to return to the roots. The grapes, grown exclusively by natural methods, are monitored with great precision and care throughout all their growth phases and with special attention during the ripening period, and are processed into wine in the winery by adding native yeast. The vineyards are the visible proof of a deeply rooted tradition. History, tradition, and nature of a unique "terroir" are the unmistakable values of Podere Il Castellaccio.
