Rosso Riserva

“Ginevra”

DOP

Red

The Rosso Riserva DOP Ginevra embodies the most authentic essence of Tuscan winemaking, reflecting the distinctive characteristics of maritime wines with a touch of saltiness. This fine wine is primarily produced from Sangiovese (80%) and Merlot (20%) grapes cultivated in clay-iron-rich soils in flat areas. After vinification in steel with a maceration of about seven days, the wine matures for 12 months in French oak tonneaux and then ages in the bottle for an additional 12 months. Its color is an intense ruby red with garnet reflections. On the nose, it opens with spicy aromas followed by a hint of vanilla, complemented by a bouquet of red fruit and notes of licorice. On the palate, it is harmonious, balanced, and smooth, with a well-defined tannic structure and a slightly mineral finish. It pairs perfectly with roasted game, hearty first courses, and aged cheeses.
