La Fattoria Polvereto with Sangiovese Terre del Sassicato wanted to express the full potential of the Sangiovese grapes, grown in its own most suitable vineyards and vinified in pureness. Many years of experience in viticulture and the adoption of specific wine-making techniques have allowed us to exalt the colour and aromas of this wine, enhancing it further with the aging for 12/16 months in the oak barrels, which gives this wine an elegant and harmonic structure. |
