Croce Di Febo
Appovento, 2021

 
€39.50

750ml Bottle

Sangiovese and a small balance of Canaiolo nero collected in the red clay parcel from Cappuccini vineyard, the wildest and most indomitable one, but also the one most sheltered from the wind or Appovento as they say in these parts. This is an unusual wine for Montepulciano, light but not diluted, agile but not devoid of complexity. Consistent to the nose, great momentum and depth in the sip. A local, thirst-quenching and versatile wine.​ ​Spontaneous fermentation in steel tanks; 24 months in small cement, earthenware and clay eggs. Bottled without clarification or filtering.
