About the wine
With sensitivity and intuition, the winemaker from the Italian winery Castello Banfi masters this red wine in the fertile and blooming Tuscan countryside. The Flaschenpöstler promise a culinary experience when you offer this Sangiovese with lamb or pizza.

Tasting note
Dark, rich ruby red. On the nose, a terrific fruit bouquet with aromas of sour cherries, plums, sweet spices, delicate rose petals and some gingerbread spice. On the palate, a gentle yet specific start, with smooth, round tannins and a delicately creamy melt. The aromas of the nose are also visible on the palate. The aftertaste is long-lasting and complex.
Culinary recommendation
Goes well with a juicy roast or spicy hard cheese.
Vinification
Only the best Sangiovese grapes (regionally known as Brunello) are used for Tuscan royal wine — in this case only the grapes that grow around the “Poggio alle Mura” castle. The alcoholic fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks and in wood. 90% of the young wine matures for 24 months in French barriques, the remaining 10% in Slavonian oak barrels. This is followed by a year in the bottle.
