More questions
The Sangiovese Superiore Bio from Il Gelso, produced by Vigne di Bertinoro, interprets the grape variety with clarity and restraint. The aromatic profile opens on ripe red fruits and a light spicy note, supported by a hint of herbaceousness that adds freshness without imposing itself. On the palate it shows medium body, lively acidity and a well-integrated tannic texture that provides ease of drinking and structure; the sapidity keeps the finish clean and of good persistence.
In the mouth it is a balanced wine, capable of showing both the immediate character of the fruit and a pleasant depth that invites a second glass. It pairs naturally with tomato-based first courses, roasts and medium-aged cheeses; it is advisable to serve it around 16-18 °C to appreciate its freshness and tannic weave. The "bio" designation is evident in the cleanliness on the palate: a pragmatic and sincere Sangiovese, made for those who seek drinkability without sacrificing character. Ideal for everyday meals and informal occasions, it nevertheless retains a reasonable aptitude for being kept for a few years.
