The Sangiovese di Romagna Superiore DOC "The Tower's" from Torre San Martino winery is a true enological gem that encapsulates the essence and winemaking tradition of Romagna. This wine is produced exclusively with Sangiovese grapes, carefully selected from the best vineyards in the region, showcasing the winery's commitment to quality and authenticity.

The wine is made following traditional methods that enhance all the varietal characteristics of the Sangiovese, resulting in a superior wine distinguished by its robustness and elegance. "The Tower's" exhibits an intensely bright ruby red color, heralding the rich aromatic and taste richness to be experienced.

On the nose, this Sangiovese di Romagna Superiore reveals a complex bouquet where notes of ripe red fruits like cherry and blueberry emerge, accompanied by spicy and balsamic nuances that add depth and intrigue the taster. On the palate, balance is key: the acidity is well balanced by the tannic structure, making "The Tower's" a vigorous yet harmonious wine. The finish is persistent, with an aftertaste that recalls the olfactory sensations.

This wine pairs perfectly with hearty dishes from traditional Romagnolo cuisine, such as tagliatelle with wild boar ragù or piadina with squacquerone cheese and arugula, but it is also ideal for accompanying aged cheeses and grilled meats.

Serve at a temperature of 16-18°C to fully enjoy its qualities. "The Tower's" is a wine that can be appreciated immediately, but it also has a good aging potential, revealing over time new facets of its character.
