Fattoria Fibbiano - Ciliegiolo - Toscana 750 mL

Description

Overview: Fattoria Fibbiano is located at no. 2 via Fibbiano, in the municipality of Terricciola, in the province of Pisa in the Era valley in Tuscany. Terricciola, set in the hills between Pisa and Volterra, is part of an area which is very rich in history and traditions. The soil originates from the sea and is rich in fossil shells from the Pliocene epoch, and medium-textured corals (see picture). We treat our farmland only with organic, chemical-free substances

The grapes are gentle destemmed, crushed and sended inside specialized stainless steel tanks, for 10 days. Alcoholic fermentation takes place through indigenous yeasts living on the skin. The wine ages for 4 months in cement tank where the malolactic fermentation takes place, later 12 months in Slavonian wooden barrels and finally 4 months in bottle.

Tasting Notes: Ruby red color with intense aroma of cherry, raspberry and blackberry. The tannins are smooth, whilst the body is full and persistent on the palate.

Pairing: Red meats, pasta and mid mature cheese.
