Il Palazzo Cum Sanguis Toscana IGT Rosso 0,75 ℓ

What kind of wine is it?Cum Sanguis by Il Palazzo is a Tuscan red made exclusively from Sangiovese grapes. This wine precisely expresses the characteristics of the variety, combining structure with a clear aromatic definition. The winemaking process aims to preserve the purity of the fruit and provides a solid and well-ordered tasting experience. The result is a drink of remarkable intensity, enriched by a well-integrated tannic texture that makes it particularly suitable for the table.Where does it come from?This red is produced in Tuscany, specifically in the province of Arezzo, where Il Palazzo has been operating since the 1970s. The Arezzo area provides ideal conditions for cultivating Sangiovese, promoting a ripening process that favors precision and expressive clarity. The territory gives the wine a measured balance between its fruity component and olfactory distinctness, resulting in an authentic and distinctive character.How is it made?The Sangiovese grapes are vinified in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats to ensure precise temperature control. The process includes a post-fermentation maceration on the skins lasting thirty days, an essential step to gradually extract color and structural components. Afterwards, malolactic fermentation takes place in steel under a controlled atmosphere to stabilize the flavor profile, before the final bottle ageing.Tasting notesIn the glass, it shows a deep ruby red color, consistent with the prolonged skin contact. The nose opens with aromas of violet, currant, and raspberry, enriched by vegetal and spicy nuances of juniper berries. On the palate it is full-bodied and smooth, supported by fine tannins that are never aggressive, finishing with a discreet persistence focused on the fruit.Food pairingsThis red naturally accompanies charcuterie appetizers, where the savoriness is well balanced by the wine’s structure. It pairs perfectly with toasts topped with meat and mushroom sauces, whose flavors echo the aromatic notes in the glass. Its tannic texture and solid body also make it an ideal companion for braised red meats, able to balance rich and flavorful dishes.When to serve itCum Sanguis is the ideal wine to bring to the table during convivial occasions and provides a reliable match for meat-based menus. Thanks to its time in glass, it offers an already balanced and harmonious profile, ready to be enjoyed immediately without long waits. The quality of the tannins, however, also allows for a brief evolution in the bottle, for those who prefer an even more harmonious and softened tasting experience.
