Murtas

The vines grow on gravelly, marly limestone soils formed during the alluvial phase of the Upper Pliocene along the Elsa River. The grapes remain on the vine until slightly overripe and are fermented separately. Fermentation takes place over around 20 days in steel; Sangiovese then matures in 25-hl wooden casks, while Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah mature in barriques. In the glass, the wine shows a ruby-red colour with violet highlights, peppery, tobacco-like and coffee-scented aromas, and a warm, soft palate with toast on the finish.
