Precise and structured, it shows notes of lavender, plums, pink grapefruit, guarana and mixed white flowers. Medium-full body, soft tannins and a composed and tasty finish that makes sweetness its main weapon.

Description

Gigino is a tribute to Luigi Barbanera, son of the founders Altero Barbanera and Maria Franceschini, who followed in his parents' footsteps and passed on his passion and dedication to future generations. A gesture of affection, a hymn to his memory, a tribute to his tenacity. Even the wine that bears his name stands out for its intense character, typical of the wines of the region. Composed of a blend of selected vines, Gigino represents the authentic expression of the Tuscan territory, where the vines enjoy favorable climatic conditions for the development of grapes rich in aromas and structure.

The grapes are harvested when they reach perfect ripeness and undergo fermentation at a controlled temperature to preserve aromas and freshness. The wine is then aged in steel and a small part in wood, enriching itself with complexity and softness without losing its original freshness.

On the palate, this Tuscan red presents a fruity bouquet with predominant notes of ripe red fruits such as cherry and plum, accompanied by spicy scents and light hints of vanilla. The structure is enveloping and well-balanced, with soft tannins and a persistent and harmonious finish.

Perfect to accompany grilled red meats, first courses with rich sauces and mature cheeses.
