La Gerla Birba Toscano 2020

The estate's innovative approach to winemaking yields a harmonious and pleasant wine that reveals the Sangiovese grape's inherent qualities. By utilizing small new oak barrels, the winemaker has successfully cohesive sophistication with approachability, resulting in a wine that is both elegant and easy-drinking.

Elegant and modern take on the La Gerla range, with a light oak influence and a more contemporary style. The fruit is still firmly rooted in Sangiovese, but the addition of plushness to the sour cherry and raspberry suggestions adds a welcome layer of depth. The spice and nut intricacy is well-balanced, with a dash of warm spices and a elegant almond note on the finish. The tannins are soft and rounded, with a crisp acidity that makes this a drinkable and inviting wine.

Bold and layered red, with a intricate array of dried fruit and berry notes, highlighting cherry, cranberries, and strawberries, enhanced by the mild boldness of red currant, sun-dried tomatoes, and basil leaf. The aftertaste is long and earthy, with a note of oak and leather, and a enjoyable density that will only improve with age. A fine example of a full-bodied red, with a concentrated and plush texture that will leave you wanting more.
