Description
Bindi Sergardi "Achille" IGT Toscana Rosso 2018
Bindi Sergardi "Achille" is dedicated to Achille Sergardi, who devoted his life and energy to the Republic of Siena at the end of the 1400s.
Intense ruby red colour. The wine opens with an intense and fruity bouquet of ripe red fruit, cherries and a dollop of blackberry. Each sip is striking with its round, sweet and soft mouthfeel. Medium-bodied and dry with velvety tannins and a lively acidity. Persistent red cherry and raspberry flavours mingling with subtle vanilla, leather and tobacco accents. An inviting wine that is so delicious and easy to drink.
100% Sangiovese. The fruit comes from I Colli estate vineyards in the hilly area of Montagnola Senese. the vines grow in rocky Montagnola and Alberese soils rich in important nutrients for the cultivation of Sangiovese.
Fermentation takes place in stainless steel vats and maceration lasts circa 15 days at a controlled temperature of 28°C. Shortly after malolactic fermentation, the wine refines in barriques at Tenuta I Colli.
Top Tip: Decant for an hour before serving!
