Toscana IGT Tassinaia 2022 Box da 6 bottiglie

Tassinaia was the first wine produced by the winery in 1992 and takes its name from a hill located within the estate. It is obtained from a careful selection of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon from the hillsides that have clayey soil with abundant presence of sand and some limestone areas.

Merlot is harvested earlier than Cabernet Sauvignon and they are fermented separately in steel vats. Maceration on the skins continues for 9-12 days for Merlot and 12-15 days for Cabernet Sauvignon. Still separate, the various batches of wine are placed in tonneaux to carry out the malolactic fermentation and age in tonneaux for 16 months. Only at the end of this period the final assembly is done and the wine still rests in the bottle in the cellar for a year before being sold.
