Winery
The Antinori have dedicated themselves to the art of viticulture for more than six hundred years: ever since, in 1385, Giovanni di Piero Antinori joined the Florentine Guild of Winemakers.
For 26 generations, the family has always managed this activity directly, making innovative and sometimes courageous choices, but always maintaining unaltered respect for tradition and for the territory.
Each vintage, each soil, each idea is a new beginning, a new search for higher and higher quality margins. As Marquis Piero likes to say: "the ancient roots play an important role in our philosophy, but they have never inhibited our innovative spirit".
Description
Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc for an intriguing, decisive and well-balanced wine, able to tell the unique character of Maremma.
Organoleptic characteristics:
Botrosecco 2018 shows a ruby red color. The nose is intense, complex and characterized by sensations of ripe red fruit, such as sour cherries and plums, combined with spicy notes of paprika and white pepper. On the palate it is velvety, sapid, with enveloping tannins and a persistent finish. In the aftertaste come back fragrant hints of red fruit, tobacco and cocoa.
Storage time:
4-5 years
Vinification
destemming and soft pressing; alcoholic fermentation at a temperature of about 25 °C, 15 days of maceration and malolactic fermentation in steel tanks
