This wine is cherry red, on the nose shows aromas of fresh fruit with hints of toast and cocoa. In the mouth is fresh but at the same time is fleshy with volume and length.
It is a 100% Monastrell wine made from our vineyard named “La Tremenda”, which is situated 600m above the level of the sea. The soil in this vineyard is sandy limestone, and the age of the plants that are planted is 30 years old. All treatments related with the vineyard are environmental friendly. The wine is aged for 6 months in french oak.
La Potazzine makes wines that are the true and genuine expression of the terroir and vintage to enjoy now and for decades to come. They follow the Montalcino tradition of reflecting the elegance of the pure Sangiovese grape through long spontaneous fermentation using only native yeast and aging for 40 months in Slavonian oak.
Two distinct vineyard plots owned by La Potazzine: Le Prata, facing south-west at an altitude above sea level of 507 meters and La Torre with a south-east exposure at 420 asl., which, after being fermented and aged individually, come to the bottle in a single solution.
The nose is already a perfect equilibrium between fruity and floral scents, with the dark berries combining with gardenia and violet. On the palate it is very juicy and savoury, well-defined by spicy notes and red cherry aromas. Beautiful right now but able to be cellared up to 2040
