The same muse, a different dress. While the white Roxanne seduces with Vermentino, its red brother relies on Tuscan tradition: 90% Sangiovese, supplemented by 10% Ciliegiolo – the indigenous grape variety whose name means "little cherry" and whose character perfectly describes it. Hand-picked at the end of September, fermentation in stainless steel at a controlled temperature, ten days on the skins. Ageing takes place mainly in steel, with only a small proportion maturing in wood – enough to provide structure without overpowering the fruit.

The result is a deep ruby red colour. The nose exudes aromas of ripe cherries, red berries and subtle spicy notes. Juicy and harmonious on the palate with polished tannins and lively acidity. A wine full of warmth and grace that invites you to savour the classic cuisine of its homeland – from pasta al pomodoro to bistecca. SUPERIORE.DE
