Detailed info
Grand Gold medal - Sélections Mondiales des Vins Canada 2023
Present in Tuscany since 1141, the Ricasolis claim to be the oldest Italian winery. In addition to its ancestral know-how, the family benefits from the advice of renowned oenologist Carlo Ferrini. This classic cuvée comes from vineyards located on the five most representative terroirs of Brolio. Fermentation is done in stainless steel vats followed by an aging period of 21 months in barrels and large barrels, for a perfectly integrated woody touch. Brilliant with Beefsteak Fiorentina or pasta with Bolognese sauce.
