The hillside vineyards of Cerreto Guidi, rising 150 meters above sea level, provide an exceptional foundation for Alessandro Nieri's innovative Tuscan wines. The unique combination of fossil-rich soils for the Cabernets and clay-based parcels for Merlot creates distinct micro-terroirs within the estate, continuing a family winemaking legacy that dates back to 1895. Nieri's commitment to sustainable farming practices and respect for his land's natural attributes exemplifies the thoughtful evolution of Tuscan viticulture
A full-bodied red, with straightforward currant, berry and spice character. Fine tannins. A little light on the finish.
