Carmignano Riserva Il Circo Rosso
This wine is produced by Fabrizio Pratesi in the LoLocco estate,owned by his family since 1875. Only the best hand-harvested grape are used in this wine. Dark ruby-red in color with aromas of sweet red fruit with mineral undertones. On the palate it is rich and harmonious with good structure, so tannins and a lingering nish. Il Circo Rosso is the wine used to celebrate the Feast of Saint Michael, the patron Saint of Carmignano.
