WINE DESCRIPTION

Piccini Sasso al Poggio Toscana is a premium red wine produced by Piccini, a renowned winery in Tuscany, Italy. The wine is made from a blend of Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot grapes grown in the vineyards located on the hillsides of the Tuscan countryside. The vineyards are characterized by their rocky soil, which imparts a unique minerality to the wine. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the grapes, followed by fermentation and aging in oak barrels for several months. The resulting wine is a full-bodied, complex, and elegant red with notes of dark fruit, spice, and a hint of vanilla. It is a perfect representation of the classic Tuscan style and is sure to impress any wine lover.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Tuscan wine shows a deep and intense ruby red color.On the nose, aromas of ripe berries, cherries, and plums mingle with hints of pepper, spices, and tobacco. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied with firm tannins, good structure, and a long finish. It is an expressive and well-balanced wine with nuances of licorice and pleasant acidity.
