Description

The Niccolaio Maremma Toscana DOC Cabernet Sauvignon by Grillesino stands out as an authentic and refined expression of the Maremma territory, renowned for its mild climatic conditions and mineral-rich soil. This wine is made from Cabernet Sauvignon grapes, an international variety that here finds an ideal environment to fully express its structured and aromatic characteristics.

The winemaking process is carefully managed, involving an aging that enhances the soft tannins and the balance between acidity and body. In the glass, it shows an intense ruby red color, accompanied by complex aromas of ripe wild berries, spicy notes, and hints of vanilla derived from aging in wood. The taste is full, elegant, and persistent, capable of harmoniously accompanying red meat dishes, roasts, and aged cheeses.

The Magnum version adds charm and allows for better wine evolution over time, making it also ideal for storage and special occasions. Every sip tells the passion and respect for the terroir of Tuscany, offering a genuine and memorable sensory experience.

Winery history

A project led by Giancarlo and Saverio Notari that took shape in the late 1990s: the Grillesino estate was established as a production property affiliated with the Compagnia del Vino group and has been developed through vineyard work and expansions of the winery, enhancing selected clones in collaboration with the Università di Agraria di Firenze and the Institut d'Oenologie de Bordeaux.

Production philosophy

Production focused on the typicity of the territory: use of modern winery technologies combined with light filtration treatments to preserve the character of the native grapes; experimentation with clones and varieties to produce wines recognizable as being from the Maremma.

Terroir and vineyards

Magliano in Toscana, Bassa Maremma, with vineyards partly located within the Maremma DOC / Morellino di Scansano appellations.
