Vinified in steel and aged in French oak tonneaux with a subsequent period in cement, it offers an elegant and well-balanced profile, with soft tannins, lively acidity, and a pronounced mineral imprint, designed for the table.Where it comes fromIt originates in Tuscany from a selected parcel identified as vineyard 6.

The balance between tannin and freshness supports flavorful and succulent preparations, also enhancing a Florentine steak or a well-aged pecorino in a regional culinary context.When to serve itRecommended when seeking a Tuscan red from Sangiovese with balanced structure, capable of accompanying the meal seamlessly. It can be enjoyed after the aging planned by La Massa, which includes a period in the bottle before release, for a drink that is already harmonious.
