Toscana IGT La Lallera 2020 Borgo San Frediano

The Toscana IGT La Lallera pays homage to the song of the same name by the great Florentine chansonnier Riccardo Marasco, which jokingly refers to the love life of Florentine girls.

Lallera is a blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon with a small percentage of Petit Verdot. The grapes come from Eocene soils, composed of limestone and marl. The carefully selected grapes are vinified separately in stainless steel tanks. A maceration process follows which helps to determine the harmonious and complex character of the wine. After being transferred to traditional concrete tanks, the wine ages for 12 months in barrique.

The wine has a deep ruby color and offers notes of black berry fruit, accompanied by hints of liquorice and tobacco. The presence of Cabernet and Petit Verdot adds complexity with spicy notes, herbaceous hints and a tannic structure, giving the wine a full but balanced structure.

Lallera pairs perfectly with tasty red meats and mature cheeses.
