Toscana IGT Rosso "Falecine" 2023 - Castelfalfi
Tasting notes
Near the Carfalo Valley – a charming natural area carved over millions of years by the eponymous stream, extending for about 220 hectares – lies the area of Falecine, a land historically inhabited by the rich wildlife in Castelfalfi. Here, grapes of Sangiovese, Syrah and Merlot breathe life today into a modern style pale red wine. The north-facing vineyards facilitate a slower ripening of the grapes and a better formation of aromas, resulting in elevated acidity and a delicately muted color intensity. Falecine is a soft red wine boasting both balance and elegance. The gentle pressing of the grapes for one hour gives this wine its brilliant color. Its aromatic profile delights the senses with a bouquet of fruity and floral notes, reminiscent of roses, wisteria, and small red fruits such as wild strawberry and raspberry. On the palate, it is
fresh and persistent, concluding with a savory finish and a hint of spice.
