WINE DESCRIPTION

Nittardi Ad Astra Maremma Toscana is a premium red wine produced by Nittardi, a renowned winery in Tuscany, Italy. The wine is made from grapes grown in the Maremma appellation, known for its unique terroir and ideal growing conditions. The vineyards are situated on hillsides with a mix of clay and limestone soils, which impart a distinct minerality to the wine. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the grapes, followed by fermentation and aging in oak barrels. The resulting wine is full-bodied, with rich flavors of dark fruit, spice, and a hint of vanilla. It is a perfect representation of the classic Tuscan style, with a modern twist.
