IGT Toscana
The estate’s pride and joy, this complex, voluptuous
wine is a blend of the iconic Tuscan variety Sangiovese
with global star Merlot. Marrying sinew and softness, it
reveals the new potential of an ancient terroir.

Growing mostly on the rocky clay schist known as galestro, the well-
drained and well-ventilated vines face south and south-west. The
Merlot grapes are generally harvested around mid-September while
the Sangiovese component ripens as much as a month later. All
harvesting is done by hand, and the grapes go through a tripartite
manual selection process: first in the vineyard, and twice more in the
cellar before they are lowered gently into the vats.

With a bouquet of black and red fruits that gradually reveals spices,
mocha and mineral notes and an intense ruby-red colour, this is a wine
of great intensity and complexity. In the mouth, perfectly ripe fine
tannins and a velvety texture build to a fresh finish of great persistence.
The wines of Tenuta Casenuove have garnered a series of international
plaudits and awards.
