- 'TASSINAIA' CASTELLO DEL TERRICCIO 2020 DESCRIPTION
- The Tassinaia€ of Castello del Terriccio is an intense and structured red, produced in Tuscany with Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. It is a classic Bordeaux blend aged for a long time in wood, with a sunny, elegant and Mediterranean profile. The perfect ripening of the grapes gives aromas of small berries, red berries, hints of Mediterranean herbs, spices and woody nuances. The sip is rich and complex, mature and very persistent.
- The wine "Tassinaia" was born from the desire to produce a great Bordeaux blend in Tuscany. The Tenuta Castello del Terriccio, located in Castellina Marittima, in the province of Pisa, offers excellent soil and climate conditions for the cultivation of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. The considerable extension of the property has allowed us to select and allocate to the vineyard only the most suitable plots for soil composition and exposure. The areas where the sea reflects the sunlight were privileged, giving a particularly intense luminosity to the vineyards. The soils are medium textured, rich in skeleton and stones, with a strong presence of mineral elements, in particular iron and copper. The vineyards are located at an altitude of 100 meters above sea level with a south and south
- west exposure and are trained with spurred cordon. The harvests and vinifications are carried out separately, following the different maturation times of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. The fermentations take place at a controlled temperature with 2 or 3 weeks of maceration on the skins. The wines mature in French oak barriques from Allier, partly second passage, for about 14
- 16 months, they are then assembled and bottled. The refinement in the cellar before being put on the market lasts 12 months.
- Tassinaia€ Castello del Terriccio, despite being produced with international grapes, retains the characteristic face of the wines from the hinterland of the Tuscan coast. The proximity of the sea and the influence of its gentle breezes on the warm and sunny climate, as well as the particular composition of the soil, contribute to giving a strong territorial mark to the wine. The color is a very intense ruby red. The olfactory profile is characterized by aromas of small dark berries, morello cherry, light notes of jam, soft spices, vanilla, woody memories and wild herbs of the Mediterranean scrub. The structure is important, with an elegant and evolved tannic texture, complex and rich aromas, of great expressive maturity, which lead to a persistent and balanced finish.
