Tenuta di Carleone Il Guercio 2021
High-altitude Sangiovese. An ethereal and vibrant essence of Radda, shining with transparency, nervous acidity, and an almost Pinot-esque charm.
Tenuta di Carleone Il Guercio 2021
Purity and character. Vinified with a long whole-cluster maceration (up to 4 months), the 2021 explodes with notes of raspberry, blood orange, rose petals, and chalky minerality. On the palate, it is taut, with very fine tannins and an almost "northern" freshness that makes the finish incredibly long and saline.
