Toscana IGT Rosso Il Guercio 2022 Tenuta di Carleone

The Tuscan red wine Il Guercio by Tenuta di Carleone is born in vineyards located in Radda in Chianti, in the province of Siena. The Carleone estate was founded in 2012 by Karl Egger, who with the help of his friend Sean O'Callaghan produces wines following the principles of organic and biodynamic agriculture and low-interventionist oenology. One-Eye is Sean's nickname.

The wine is made of 100% Sangiovese grapes, which are vinified in concrete tanks for 5 months (20% of the grapes with stem), followed by a year of refinement in the same containers.

Intense ruby red in colour, it opens on the nose with hints of black berries, with a delicate note of dark chocolate. On the palate it is balanced and fine, with silky tannins and a long finish.

It pairs very well with savory pies, semi-mature cheeses and baked turkey.
