Descrizione

Schidione is a Toscana IGT red wine by Jacopo Biondi Santi, produced at Castello di Montepò among the hills of Tuscany’s Maremma. It is made from a combination of Sangiovese Grosso from the BBS11 strain, closely connected with the Biondi Santi tradition, together with the international varieties Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. The Toscana IGT classification allows stylistic freedom while preserving a clear connection with the character of the area.

On the palate, Schidione combines power, intensity and elegance. Cabernet Sauvignon contributes depth and structure, while Sangiovese brings finesse and freshness; Merlot completes the blend with softness and harmony. This distinctive red wine is well suited to roasts, grilled meats, game and aged cheeses. Schidione is an excellent choice for those looking for an expressive Tuscan wine that brings together the Biondi Santi family heritage and a contemporary style shaped by international grape varieties.
