Fosso Cancelli is the Ciavolich line that bottles the grapes from the company's oldest vineyards, the ones that have made the history of their wines great. In particular, Montepulciano Fosso Cancelli wants to photograph the beginning of fermentation in cement.
After manual harvesting, the grapes are pressed in the ancient press and transferred to concrete tanks. Fermentation starts spontaneously and without artificial temperature control. After racking, the wine rests for a year in the same fermentation tanks. However, it will have to wait another 3 years in the bottle before being put on the market.
Bottles of absolute rarity, not to be missed!
Deep ruby red, it opens on hints of licorice and fruit in spirit. The body is well present but the freshness and savoriness bring us back to beautifully balanced tannins. Ideal companion to roast lamb, stuffed guinea fowl, wild boar stew. Try it with pappardelle alla lepre and it will surprise you.
