Mediterra

Toscana I.G.T.

Syrah 40%, Merlot 30%, Cabernet Sauvignon 30%

 

As its name suggests, this red wine is characterised by aromas of the Mediterranean scrub and the enticing scent of sea salt. Mediterra is a wine with great personality that expresses the intensity of the whole, intact fruit, kissed by sun and sea.

Climate Trend

 

The climatic conditions in 2010 were distinguished by a cool and rainy winter which initially led to a slight lengthening of the flowering stage. The arrival of summer and the warm season in July contributed to a recovery of the ripening phase and, during the harvest there were good temperature variations between day and night with windy days which dried the grapes, maintaining excellent acidity.
