Varietals: Sangiovese 100%

Alcohol %: 14.5

Region: Toscana

Tasting Notes: Campo del Drago 2017 is surprisingly fresh on the nose with floral and citrus notes. The perfectly completed phenolic maturity is distinguished in the mouth, with a tense and long finish. The wine has no bitter notes, typical of the 2017 vintage.

Ageing/Vinification: Fermentation occurred in steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 28°C for 20-25 days with extended maceration. The wine was subsequently moved into barrels, where it refined for 24 months, partly in barriques and partly in 30-50 HL French oak barrels. This was followed by refinement in unglazed concrete prior to bottling.

Vineyard: A cru from the finest vineyard in the Capanna area, a hectare and a half at the highest elevation - about 430m above sea level. Soil consists of clay shale and gavel-pebble.
