Baffo Nero Rosso Maremma DOC - Rocca di Frassinello is a wine that embodies the wild and refined soul of the Tuscan Maremma. Obtained from a careful selection of native and international grape varieties, this blend elegantly represents the territory where it is born, characterized by a mild climate and mineral-rich soils. After careful fermentation and aging in oak barrels, the wine develops a enveloping structure and a complex aromatic profile.



In the glass, it presents an intense ruby red color, while on the nose it offers scents of ripe red fruits, sweet spices, and light balsamic notes. The sip is full, balanced, with soft tannins and a gustatory persistence that recalls small fruits and sweet tobacco. Ideal to accompany red meats, roasts, and aged cheeses, Baffo Nero is a perfect ambassador of Maremma's wine-making excellence.
