'Rosso delle Ripalte' Costa Toscana IGT Tenuta delle Ripalte 2022

Rosso delle Ripalte Costa Toscana IGT is a label of the Tenuta delle Ripalte winery, which stands out for its innovative production philosophy, perfectly represented by the choice of vines to be cultivated. This is the case of this extraordinary wine, which comes from a particular blend of Cannonau (or Alicante) grapes, present for 85%, and Carignan, for the remaining 15%. These two grape varieties spread throughout the Mediterranean basin are known to thrive in warm climates. On the island of Elba they therefore find the ideal conditions to give life to a fragrant and intense red. After a careful selection and a manual harvest, the grapes undergo a traditional process of maceration and fermentation. In order to preserve the varietal characteristics of the grapes, the wine is not aged in wood, but only in steel. For this reason it is advisable to taste Rosso delle Ripalte Costa Toscana IGT shortly after bottling, even if it can remain in the cellar for a couple of years.
