La Ricolma 2022 by San Giusto a Rentennano is a pure Merlot that challenges the boundaries of Tuscany, born from five selected plots on sandy and clay soils in Gaiole in Chianti. This deep ruby red releases an intense bouquet of ripe plum, blackberry, dark chocolate and sweet spices, with an elegant herbaceous note. Aged for 20-22 months in French oak barriques, it offers a sumptuous and silky palate, with smooth tannins and a long and enveloping finish. A rare and seductive Super Tuscan, which combines the power of Merlot with the finesse of the Chianti territory.
