Ombra Blu Sassotondo, Tasting notes:
Ruby in colour, very consistent. The nose reveals notes of small red fruits, cedar and black pepper. The taste is concentrated and soft, very long but not heavy. *
Ombra Blu
The grapes are harvested and selected by hand and vinified separately. Fermentation takes place without the addition of yeast and lasts, including maceration, between 25 and 30 days. The wines mature for 12 months partly in barriques and partly in steel. Subsequently blended and bottled, the wine is aged for a minimum of 6 months in the bottle.
Sassotondo
The producer, Sassotondo, works with passion in the lands that unite Pitigliano and Sovana. A powerful and mysterious territory: the autochthonous vines and an environment which is in some ways extreme – with tuff rising everywhere – produce fine and elegant wines, naturally concentrated, sapid and spicy. Sassotondo’s wines endeavor to communicate the power and mistery of the land they come from: the local varieties of vines combined with an unique environment, with the tufo stone that appears everywhere, make wines that are fine and elegant, naturally concentrated, sapid and spicy.
