Description

Varietal:
Sangiovese 100%

Harvest:
The grapes were attentively selected and hand picked on our vineyard with the best exposition, south-east, on the highest altitude of our estate.
The training system features cordon spur.

Vinification:
Nicole is fruit of our grape’s natural fermentation, without any enological additives. The grapes have been fermented in wooden oak casks (so-called Troncoconici) with daily punch down.
Matured in 40hl capacity oak tanks for about 10months, Nicole is being bottled without clarification or filtration.

Characteristic
Of deep ruby color, Nicole is an example of Sangiovese at its best – succulent and powerful, at the same time refined and elegant.
Intriguing and complex on the nose, with a fruity component well recognizable also on the palate. The tannins are present but round and well integrated.
A characteristic wine of excellent drinkability.

Pairing:
Nicole expresses herself best with typical Tuscan tomatoe based dishes, Pizza and Pasta.
Ideal with sausages, typical Tuscan starters, semi-matured cheeses, red meat, offal (especially tripe in tomatoe sauce).

Temperature: 14-18 degrees
