The Petrucci Anfiteatro DOC Orcia from the acclaimed Podere Forte winery is a true expression of the terroir of this renowned wine region in Tuscany. This wine is the result of a rigorous selection of Sangiovese grapes, which grow on clay and galestro-rich soils typical of the Orcia hills, ensuring optimal ripening.
Podere Forte follows a philosophy rooted in harmony with nature and employs organic and biodynamic methods in its viticulture process, making Petrucci Anfiteatro a genuine and high-quality wine. The vinification involves spontaneous fermentations thanks to indigenous yeasts, followed by a long maturation in oak barrels, which further refines the aromatic profile of this noble red.
Upon tasting, Petrucci Anfiteatro stands out for its intense ruby red color. On the nose, it offers a complex bouquet with notes of ripe red fruits, sweet spices, and a slight touch of vanilla and earth, faithfully reflecting its origins. On the palate, the wine is robust yet elegant, with well-structured tannins and a freshness that invites another sip. The finish is persistent, with a lingering aftertaste reminiscent of aromatic herbs and Mediterranean scrub.
Ideal for accompanying elaborate red meat dishes, game, and aged cheeses, the Petrucci Anfiteatro DOC Orcia is a wine that also evolves magnificently with aging, promising a favorable evolution for years to come.
Every sip of this wine is a celebration of the winemaking excellence of Podere Forte, destined to satisfy the most discerning palates and lovers of robust Tuscan wines.
