Soft and elegant thanks to 12 months of ageing in French oak barriques, this red wine from Cantina Vignaioli Scansano is made from mainly Sangiovese grapes, sourced from vineyards over 25 years old located at 250 metres above sea level. The harvest takes place at the beginning of October, when the grapes are perfectly ripe. This is followed by maceration at 35°C for 12 hours, temperature-controlled fermentation and post-fermentation maceration on the skins for 12 days. The wine is aged in 225-litre French oak barrels for 12 months, followed by a further 10 months of bottle ageing.
