Detailed info
Detailed info
Umberto Cesari was founded in the 1960s in Emilia-Romagna, the gastronomic heart of Italy. It was in France that the idea for an innovative project took root: to produce Sangiovese in the style of great French wines. Made exclusively from this grape variety, this cuvée showcases the full character of Sangiovese in the Romagna terroir. Its notes of dark fruits, violet, and woody accents call for pairing with grilled meats. It’s the ideal companion for bistecca alla fiorentina.

(Automatically translated) The woody and smoky notes of this wine charmed me. Full-bodied, just enough. Definitely my favorite red wine.
