The first vintage was produced in 2008 (1,800 bottles). It is a Sangiovese with a strong Chianti character, decisive and elegant at the same time, just like “Zac,” as Anna Corsini was affectionately called by her nieces and nephews and their children.

Tasting Notes
Pure Sangiovese grapes chosen in the Gugliaie vineyard for this wine dedicated to Anna Corsini, a tribute to a special woman that try to translate in the glass her character and personality. The 2015 vintage, with its generous climate, has brought the brightness with full maturity of Sangiovese into an intense and charming wine. The aromatic profile is intense and floral, with dried mint and thyme on rich fruits, such as cherry and plum, raspberry and red orange. The sip is complex and appealing in its balanced dynamics between the power of the structure and a juicy freshness, together with spicy and salty notes, shaded of graphite and leather. Vibrant velvet tannins give a remarkable persistence and a bright balsamic finish.
Pairing
Risotto with Raschera cheese and roast reduction, pheasant with pomegranate, lamb meatballs flavored with laurel.
