Description

IGT Toscana Sangiovese “Zac” is 100% Sangiovese from the Gugliaie vineyard (2.5 ha) and dedicated to Anna Corsini, the sister of Prince Tommaso, it represents the new challenges of the winery.

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.

Winemaking and Aging

Winemaking

In steel tanks at a temperature of 28 °C for a period of 16 days.

Aging

It ages 18 months mainly in used barrique. A 12-month aging period in bottle follows (since 2016).

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.
