The Toscana IGT "Sassoalloro" by Jacopo Biondi Santi is a vibrant expression of Tuscan viticulture that reflects a modern and refined interpretation of Sangiovese. In the hands of Jacopo Biondi Santi, heir to a family with a historic tradition in the production of high-quality wines, this wine is made with selected grapes that come from the best plots of the company's vineyards.

With an intense ruby red color and purplish reflections, Sassoalloro reveals itself on the nose with a complex and persistent bouquet. Notes of ripe red fruits, such as cherries and blackberries, blend with delicate hints of vanilla and spices, derived from a careful aging process in barrique. The olfactory balance is completed by slight nuances of tobacco and chocolate, which give it a particular depth.

On the palate, the wine offers a robust yet harmonious structure. The acidity is well balanced by the soft and velvety tannin, resulting in a pleasant tactile sensation and a long persistence. The aromatic complexity is renewed, leaving room for a slight minerality in the finish.

Ideal for pairing with red meat dishes such as Florentine steaks or elaborate preparations based on game, Sassoalloro also proves excellent alongside aged cheeses. It is recommended to serve it at a temperature of 16-18°C to enhance all its qualities.

Sassoalloro is not just a wine, but a sensory experience that captures the essence of Tuscany and the innovation of Jacopo Biondi Santi, making it an undisputed protagonist at the table of wine enthusiasts with character.
