Vino nero – is what the Tuscans once called their red wines. With this name, the Rivetti family takes up an old tradition and makes it the flagship of their Casanova estate in Terricciola. Twenty-year-old Sangiovese vines are rooted in sandy soils of marine origin, whose oceanic sediments give the wine its characteristic minerality. After two weeks of maceration, it matures for twelve months in French barriques that have already been filled – subtle enough not to mask the fruit.

The colour in the glass is an intense ruby red; blackberries, wild cherries and a hint of tobacco emerge. The palate reveals all the elegance of Tuscan Sangiovese: juicy, with velvety tannins and a freshness that keeps the wine lively despite its richness. A wine that deserves its name – dark, brooding and unmistakably Tuscan. SUPERIORE.DE
