Descrizione

Il Guardiavigna IGT Toscana in wooden case 2019, presented in Magnum format by the renowned winery Podere Forte, is a sublime expression of quality viticulture from Tuscany. This captivating red wine stands out for its delicately balanced composition of selected grapes, encapsulating the essence of the local terroir in every sip.

With an intense and deep red color, the Guardiavigna reveals a complex and enveloping bouquet on the nose. Notes of ripe red fruits blend with hints of spices and a touch of vanilla, a result of careful maturation in barriques. On the palate, the wine surprises with its robust yet elegant structure, with finely polished tannins leading to a persistent and harmonious finish.

Ideal for accompanying rich and flavorful dishes such as red meat roasts, game, or aged cheeses, the Guardiavigna is destined to evolve beautifully over the years. Presented in a wooden case, this Magnum is perfect for special occasions or as a prestigious addition to any wine collection.

Winery history

Podere Forte was founded as an agricultural project led by Pasquale Forte and developed around the idea of a self-sufficient estate. The estate, operating since 1997, has re-created an integrated farm in the Val d’Orcia where viticulture, olive growing, beekeeping and livestock farming coexist, following organic and biodynamic practices.

Production philosophy

The estate is managed according to the principles of organic and biodynamic agriculture, with attention to soil health, production autonomy and the enhancement of local resources. The approach combines traditional techniques with precision tools in a system called "Sistema Forte," aimed at environmental and social sustainability.

Terroir and vineyards

The estate is located in the Val d’Orcia, a landscape recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site; the vineyards are planted on soils rich in schist and clay at varying elevations, which favor typical expressions of Sangiovese and Bordeaux-style blends. The estate also has extensive olive groves and large areas of agricultural land.

Awards and recognitions

Some Podere Forte wines have received recognition in international guides and competitions across different vintages.
