Introduction:
A beautifully expressive red from Tuscany, this Veccia Vigna from Isola delle Falcòle offers a nuanced interplay of red fruit, savory depth, and refined structure—showing the potential of top-tier Tuscan Sangiovese with depth and charm.

Terrior:
Made from old-vine Sangiovese located on a south-facing hillside in southern Tuscany. The vineyards, situated at around 350 meters elevation, grow in well-drained clay-limestone soils enriched with marine fossils. This terroir fosters concentrated fruit character and natural acidity. Moderate day-night temperature shifts help maintain aromatic lift and structural freshness.

Appearance:
Ruby red with a subtle garnet rim, clear and reflective of youthful maturity.

Nose:
Complex and layered, starting with aromas of wild cherry, cranberry, and red plum, then evolving to show savory notes of Italian herb mix (sage, rosemary) and warm macerated red fruit compote. There’s depth from leather, tobacco leaf, dried flowers, and a whisper of baking spice.

Palate:
Medium-bodied yet substantial, with bright cherry and raspberry flavors leading the way. A savory core emerges mid-palate—dried herbs, orange peel, and forest fungus. Polished tannins bring structure, while lively acidity gives drive and focus. Creamy texture adds a touch of polish without softness.

Finish:
Elegant and persistent, carrying red fruit, herbaceous nuances, and a fine-grained mineral thread that adds both definition and finesse.

Overall Impression:
This is a beautifully realized expression of Sangiovese—poised, layered, and complex. It's approachable now but clearly designed to age gracefully over the next 5–7 years. Pair with grilled pork, roast poultry, hearty pastas, or aged Pecorino Toscano.
