Vinification

Maremma DOC is a fast-rising star on the Italian wine scene. Based on the Supertuscan blend of Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot grapes, it sparkles with a freshness of fruit and a lively, dancing character. Delicious with food, it’s perfect as an everyday drinking wine.
The grapes are hand-picked. The fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks by 100HL, at 18-20 Celsius.

Wine

Maremma is Italy's Wild West. The coastline is a landscape of white sandy beaches, umbrella pines, strawberry trees, oak trees and heather that gives way as one drives inland to a classic Tuscan rolling hills covered in olive trees and magnificent vineyards. From this beautiful land we select this range of wines produced from meticulous pruned grapes to get the most concentrated fruit looking for that elusive quality where sun, sand, clay, sea breeze and grape are united into wines of great character from an exceptional place: MAREMMA in Tuscany.
