Toscana IGT La Gioia 2019 Riecine

La Gioia from the Riecine winery is a Rosso Toscana IGT made from 100% Sangiovese grapes.

The vineyards are located in the Gaiole in Chianti area on soils composed of limestone and clay and at an altitude of 400 meters above sea level. After harvesting, the grapes are selected and pressed before fermenting in concrete tanks. Maceration lasts for a maximum of 20 days before the wine is transferred to tonneaux of different ages for 30 months. This is followed by an aging of 6 months in the bottle.

Intense ruby red color with garnet reflections, it has intense notes of blood orange, violet and references to wild herbs. On the palate it is fresh and full-bodied, with velvety tannins and a good aromatic return that preludes a long and satisfying finish.

Perfect wine for red meats and roasts, it also goes well with aged cheeses and first courses based on wild boar sauce.
