Made from Sangiovese, Montepulciano and Trebbiano Toscano grapes. The must is cooked directly over the fire and has been maturing in small barrels since the winter of 1971. A coffee color with mahogany reflections and a somber bouquet with fireplace ash notes and those of coffee powder and leather. The mouthfeel is very sweet, violently savory and finishes on notes of burnt barley, fireplace ash and iron. This is like looking at Cesare Peruzzi’s painting “La Polenta Marchigiana” (which you can see Palazzo Buonaccorse in central Macerata). No date has been set for its bottling and market debut. Spine-tingling.
