TORGENTILE IGT Toscana

The TORGENTILE IGT, made by the winery “Il Palagio di Panzano” is a not typical representative of red wines from the heart of Chianti Classico, the oldest wine-growing region in the world. This particular red wine is made from Merlot grapes And although the grapes come from the Chianti Classico wine region, the wine is not classified as “Chianti Classico DOCG” but is a prefect example of Super Tuscan Wine. The harvest of the grape is carefully manual and after fermentation in stainless steel tanks, the wine matures for 24 months in 1,000/400 litre oak barrels. This is followed by at least six months of rest and ripening in the bottle.

This wine, once opened has got a colourful bouquet of berries that flows into the nose, mild tannins tickle the palate, delicate acids and a colourful berry flavour mingle each other. Intense, very smooth with a gentle and fruity aftertaste, persistence.
