WINE DESCRIPTION

Col d'Orcia Nearco Sant'Antimo is a premium red wine produced by Col d'Orcia, a renowned winery located in the Sant'Antimo appellation of Tuscany, Italy. The vineyards are situated at an altitude of 300 meters above sea level, with a south-west exposure that ensures optimal sun exposure and ripening of the grapes. The wine is made from a blend of Merlot , Cabernet Sauvignon, and Syrah grapes, which are carefully selected and hand-harvested. The winemaking process involves a combination of traditional and modern techniques, including fermentation in stainless steel tanks and aging in French oak barrels. The resulting wine is full-bodied, with a complex bouquet of dark fruit, spice, and tobacco, and a long, elegant finish.
