Pure Sangiovese Grosso from the Murlo area in the province of Siena. The grapes are selected from the ‘Alta’ and ‘Bassa’ vineyards and undergo spontaneous fermentation with a long maceration on the skins for about 4 months.

Ageing in amphora gives the wine an open and sunny character. In the mouth it is savoury, juicy, soft and very dynamic. It recalls dark berries with notes of blueberry and blackcurrant. A powerful wine that manages to move gracefully, offering a beautiful fruity tone, balanced with fresh, integrated tannins.

From the producer

Le Verzure

Le Verzure was born in the early 2000s thanks to Luigi and Antonella Villa, restaurateurs turned winemakers. With a family background in agriculture, they decided to embark on a journey that would take them back to their roots by purchasing Le Verzure. The winery is nestled among the rolling hills of Siena, a region shaped by viticulture developed by the Etruscans since 600 BC.

After buying the land, they transformed the large fields (once planted with alfalfa) into olive groves and beautiful Sangiovese vineyards, and a few years later, a new small vineyard with the area's white grapes-Malvasia and Trebbiano.
