2021 Tenuta di Carleone 'Il Guercio' Toscana IGT, Tuscany, Italy
$84.00
Selected from an old, terraced vineyard just outside the hamlet of Lamole. The grapes are picked late to get maximum ripeness from this wonderful high-lying vineyard. Spontaneous fermentation in cement and a small portion of the wine is crushed by foot and begins fermentation in an open bin. About 30% whole cluster, the rest of the grapes are destemmed. Maceration of four months, with very small pump-overs performed over time. Aged 12 months in cement. Unfiltered and unfined.
