Leonardo Da Vinci - Appassimento grapes brought to Cesena

Description
Sangiovese Appassimento Grapes Brought to Cesena: Romagnan intensity
Sangiovese Appassimento Grapes Brought to Cesena is a Romagna DOC produced by Leonardo Da Vinci with Sangiovese grapes dried for over 60 days. This wine, grown on the clay soils of Predappio and the marl-sandstone soils of Bertinoro and Castrocaro, in Emilia-Romagna, stands out for its structure and concentration of aromas.

Grape blend: 100% Sangiovese.

Ageing: A minimum of 9 months in barrique for part of the batch.

Tasting notes: Deep ruby red colour with garnet highlights. On the nose, notes of dried red fruit, sweet spices and hints of tobacco can be perceived. On the palate it is warm, smooth and enveloping, with ripe tannins and a persistent finish.

Pairings: Ideal with grilled red meats, game, mature cheeses and first courses with rich sauces.

Why choose it: A Sangiovese that tells the Romagnan tradition of appassimento.
