Comment on noteThe wine
I invite you to discover a gem of Tuscany, a wine that whispers rather than shouts its story. The Marrucaia Rosso d'Artimino is an encounter with the soul of this land, a balanced and profound expression that will charm you from the very first sip.
Nestled in the heart of the Carmignano region, in Tuscany, the Artimino estate signs this Marrucaia Rosso Toscana IGT. It is here, on these blessed lands, that this red wine is born, the fruit of a blend designed for balance. Cabernet Sauvignon dominates at 60%, bringing its structure and depth, complemented by 30% Merlot for roundness and 10% Cabernet Franc for its subtle aromatic touch.
In your glass, this wine reveals itself with an intense ruby color, a promise of beautiful density. On the nose, I perceive a rich and complex bouquet: notes of rose mingle with aromas of cherry and ripe plum, enhanced by a delicate touch of vanilla. Black pepper and sweet spices then come to complete this olfactory picture, inviting tasting. On the palate, the Marrucaia Rosso unfolds an elegant structure, with well-integrated tannins that caress the palate. Its sapidity is balanced, never dominating, and its progression is linear, offering beautiful aromatic persistence. The vinification is done by separate fermentation in steel, followed by a maceration of 15 to 20 days, then an ageing of 12 months in Allier barriques, with 50% first passage and 50% second passage, which gives it this complexity and elegance.
This Marrucaia Rosso is an ideal companion for your moments of sharing. I recommend serving it at a temperate temperature, so that it can express its full aromatic palette. It will accompany Tuscan traditional dishes, grilled or sauce-based red meats, and medium-aged cheeses wonderfully. Imagine it on a convivial table, sharing a meal with friends or family. It is a wine that invites conversation, discovery, and which, in its magnum format, promises beautiful memories. Let yourself be tempted by this authentic expression of Tuscany, a bottle that will reveal to you, with every sip, the know-how and passion of the Artimino estate.
