Toscana Rosso

Toscana IGT

Winemaker's notes

The Danzante Toscana Rosso is a Tuscan red wine that embodies the rich appeal of perfectly ripened fruit and botanical notes with a chic touch, making for a mature but measured mood.

VINEYARDS AND VARIETIES

The grapes come from vineyards located in Tuscany and wonderfully south-facing. This contributes to the complete and perfect ripening of the fruit. The soils in this part of Tuscany are of various types, particularly rich in sand and clay. Here, during the summer, the climate is typically hot with sunny days.

VINIFICATION AND MATURATION

The grapes are harvested when they reach full ripeness in September. During the fermentation period the temperature is constantly monitored and maintained at 28-29 °C (82.4-84.2 °F); this entails an optimal extraction of polyphenolic substances, maintaining the fruity aromatic profile. Subsequently, the wine is kept in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature for 6 months.

TASTING NOTES

The wine has a brilliant ruby red colour with purple hues. The bouquet is fruity and refers to notes of red and black berries, followed by botanical and aromatic/herbal notes. Rich and full bodied with elegant, well-integrated tannins on the palate. Long, lingering finish.
