Maturation: 10 months in old French oak barrels. Grapes: 100% Sangiovese (clone from a Montalcino vineyard).
Wine at a Glance Country: Italy Region: Sangiovese Maremma Toscana DOC Vintage: 2018 Alcohol: 13.5% ABV
Tasting Profile: Amaranto has a lively ruby red colour, with intense aromas of violets, currants, raspberries and spicy nuances. On the palate, Amaranto is fresh and balanced with a fine and elegant tannic texture and an excellent persistence. Amaranto undergoes, a short maceration to express a very pure style of Sangiovese gentle and elegant but also rich and intense.
Food Pairing: This is a dry wine, with great levels of acidity, not a wine to be taken lightly as it needs food – to really come into its own but once you introduce food all the fruit comes to life.
Serving: Serve at 16–18°C; in warm weather, 20 minutes in the fridge before pouring gets it there.
