Podere San Cristoforo Ameri Rosso Toscana 2022

"Ameri has an explosive nose with a ton of essence-like fruit, such as brambleberry pie, blackberry compote, herbal liqueur and resin. While, on the palate, it’s racy with good firmness to the tannins that helps guide layer upon layer of bold fruit to a chewy finish.
when our Sangiovese grapes are fully ripe, we cut the shoot on which they are growing and leave the bunches to dry for several days on the vine. This method called “taglio del tralcio” can be done only in warm and dry years. These partly dried grapes are added to some Sangiovese that is fermenting. These technique called “Governo” was described for the first time in the book “The art of making a perfect and durable wine”, written in 1774 by Ferdinando Paoletti from Florence."
