Descrizione

The Sangiovese of Gualdo del Re represents an authentic example of the Tuscan wine tradition, where this indigenous grape variety expresses all its complexity and versatility. Coming from grapes harvested in vineyards located in a territory rich in history and unique pedoclimatic characteristics, the wine tells a perfect balance between structure and freshness. The aging, often carried out in oak barrels, gives the Sangiovese soft and spicy notes, but without losing the typical vibrant acidity that enhances its character and ensures a long evolution in the bottle.

The aromas vibrate between hints of cherry, violet, and a slight herbal nuance, while on the palate it presents elegant tannins and a pleasant persistence. Perfect with traditional Tuscan dishes such as roasted meats or aged cheeses, this Sangiovese of Gualdo del Re is an ideal companion for those looking for a wine with a decisive yet refined character.

A true tribute to the territory of origin, capable of telling in every sip the passion and experience of a winery attentive to maintaining the quality and identity of the grape variety.

Winery history

Originally established as a mixed agricultural estate in Suvereto, the winery progressively specialized in viticulture from the 1980s. The arrival of oenologist Barbara Tamburini in the early 2000s marked a shift toward single-varietal wines and crus. In 2022 the estate was acquired by Mauro Gestri, who initiated a plan to renovate and expand the vineyards and winery facilities.

Production philosophy

Enhance the identity of each grape variety by working in the vineyard and cellar with rigor and experimentation to achieve elegance, expressive clarity, and wines capable of conveying the character of the terroir.

Terroir and vineyards

Located in Suvereto, on a hillside amphitheatre overlooking the sea and the Island of Elba; the vineyards lie on mixed soils of clay, stone and silt and reach elevations of around 100 m above sea level. The estate cultivates about 27 hectares of vineyard.

Awards and recognitions

The I’Rennero label has received numerous awards, medals and high scores over the years; the producer's website also highlights its prominent placement in the 'Mondo Merlot' competition for several consecutive vintages.
