Pairing Red meats, roasts, aged cheeses
Il Drago e le 8 Colombe Rosso Toscana IGT is an organic wine that expresses its terroir naturally. With a lively ruby-red color, it offers aromas of ripe red fruits, light balsamic notes and a touch of sweet spice; the aromatic profile is restrained but defined. On the palate it is balanced, with good freshness and soft tannins that support a medium-full body; the wine’s savory character and clean delivery make it approachable but not simplistic, with a lingering finish that invites the next glass. The texture is centered on fine, polished tannins that provide structure without weighing it down.

It’s a versatile red: it pairs easily with everyday dishes such as ragù, roasted red meats and aged cheeses, yet it also stands up to more flavorful preparations. Served slightly cool, straight from the cellar, it highlights its drinkability and pleasant smoothness. Perfect for a relaxed lunch with friends or an informal dinner, it’s ideal for those seeking a sincere wine that respects organic farming, capable of combining substance and pleasure without excess.

Winery history
The family has been connected to the hills of southern Siena for centuries: parts of the estates date back to the 16th century and Fattoria del Colle returned to the family in 1919. In recent years Donatella Cinelli Colombini has relaunched the properties, grouping them under her name and opening the modern facilities of Fattoria del Colle and Casato Prime Donne in the early 2000s.
