Comment on noteThe wine
Imagine yourself plunged into the heart of Tuscany, where the hills roll and the vines tell millennial stories. The Grumarello Carmignano Riserva DOCG from Tenuta di Artimino is not just a wine; it is an invitation to discover the very essence of an exceptional terroir, a perfect harmony between power and elegance.
Carmignano, this lesser-known but oh-so-precious DOCG, nestles in the hilly landscapes northwest of Florence. Here, a mild climate and soils suited to viticulture offer an ideal setting for grape varieties like Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah. Tenuta di Artimino, guardian of this heritage, crafts this wine with know-how passed down from generation to generation. The 2020 vintage of this Grumarello Riserva is the result of fermentation in steel tanks, followed by refinement in wood, giving it remarkable complexity.
To the eye, this Carmignano Riserva reveals itself in an intense ruby red robe, sprinkled with garnet highlights, signs of its ageing. On the nose, it envelops you with intense aromas of ripe red fruits, such as cherry and plum, enhanced by elegant spicy notes of vanilla, tobacco and a delicate touch of coconut, a legacy of its time in barrel. On the palate, the Grumarello offers a robust yet harmonious structure. Its tannins are perfectly balanced, melting into a rich and seductive texture. The acidity, well calibrated, extends the tasting towards a long and persistent finish, where the fruity and spicy flavors perceived on the nose reveal themselves once again.
This Carmignano Riserva is the ideal companion for gourmet moments. I warmly recommend it with elaborate red meat dishes, a fine piece of game or aged cheeses. Imagine it enhancing a special dinner, bringing a touch of Tuscan authenticity to your table. It is a wine that invites contemplation, to savor each sip like a journey into the heart of Tuscany.
