Ciliegiolo L’Orso brillo

Ciliegiolo, a red grape variety with a young and dynamic character represents Maremma’s bet to renew and boost the appellation. Girasasso's Ciliegiolo stands out for its intense and bright color. On the palate, it bursts with red fruit, berries, and spices, accompanied by an excellent minerality and freshness. On the nose, the aromas reflect the taste, while the tannins are soft. It's a versatile red wine that pairs perfectly with fish based courses, which makes it more drinkable than traditional Tuscan reds. The grapes, hand-harvested, then are destemmed and carefully selected before fermentation, which lasts 14-16 days with the skins in contact with the must. The wine is then aged for at least 6 months in 500-liter French oak tonneaux, without the use of new wood to avoid overpowering the character of the Ciliegiolo, enriching it with additional organoleptic nuances.
