2007 Gabbiano Allenza
“The style and talent of two wine makers with a wealth of experience,
Giancarlo Roman in Tuscany and Ed Sbragia in California, create a
perfect union which gives rise to this wine, in a perfect balance
between the styles of the old and new worlds.” 60% Merlot, 35% Sangiovese, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon he wine is obtained from the best grapes of the castle vineyards,
which have recently been renewed (2000 and 2001). During the alcoholic
fermentation process, techniques are applied that make it possible to
obtain the best extraction in the most natural way. The crushing of the
skins is protracted. The malolactic fermentation is carried out in new
French oak barriques: during this long phase, the lees are stirred
manually.
At the end, the wine is transferred to the castle’s ancient cellars,
in barriques of first and second passage, for a period of 16/18 months.
The wine is presented only after a further ageing in the bottle of at
least 6 months.
