Description:
San Giorgio Lungarotti
A wine with ample, solid structure and very intense ruby red with garnet reflections. The aroma releases notes of cassis and bilberry and persistent plum jam, elegant, light oak with a background of cinnamon, cocoa and balsamic notes. The initial flavour is definitely concentrated, dense and fleshy with mature tannins that envelop the mouth with a long-lasting finish.
Grape varietals: Cabernet sauvignon Sangiovese and Canaiolo from hillside vineyards; double spurred cordon pruning system, harvested in crates in September-October
Vinification: Fermented in stainless steel with 15-20 days of skin maceration. It then spends 12 months in barrique e and over 3 years in the bottle. If stored properly, it has a very long aging potential
Food pairings: It is a perfect match with roasted red meat, game and venison as well as sharp cheeses.
Best served between 16-18 °C (61-64°F) in large stem glass.
