"Colmaia" is a pure expression of Sangiovese, selected from vineyards located in one of the most suitable areas of Tuscany. The winery adopts organic farming practices, convinced that respect for the land and the environment are fundamental to obtaining superior quality grapes. This philosophy translates into wines that are true reflections of their terroir, with a strong identity and an indissoluble bond with their territory of origin.

The vinification of "Colmaia" follows a traditional approach, enhancing the varietal characteristics of Sangiovese. After a manual harvest of the grapes, fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature, to preserve the fresh and fruity aromas. The wine is then aged in oak barriques, where it acquires complexity, balance and a subtle spicy note, which harmonizes perfectly with the fruity character of the Sangiovese.

Visually, "Colmaia" presents itself with an intense and bright ruby ​​red color. On the nose, the wine expresses a rich and varied bouquet, with notes of cherry, blackberry and raspberry, enriched by nuances of violet, tobacco and a light spiciness, which reflect the elegance and complexity typical of the best Tuscan Sangiovese.

In the mouth, "Colmaia" offers a well-defined structure, with fine and well-integrated tannins that support an intense and persistent flavor texture. The acidity is lively, contributing to the overall balance of the wine and ensuring a long aromatic persistence. The finish is long and satisfying, with a return of the fruity and spicy notes perceptible on the nose.

Ideal in combination with Tuscan and Mediterranean cuisine, such as roasts, game, mushroom-based dishes and mature cheeses, the Sangiovese IGT Toscana "Colmaia" by Badia a Coltibuono is a wine that embodies the Tuscan winemaking tradition, offering a tasting experience capable of satisfying even the most demanding palates.
