This limited release wine was crafted in honor of the 20th anniversary of the winery. It is an elegant, bold wine showcasing the best of our Sangiovese and Merlot grapes.
The name comes from the number twenty in Italian thus giving a nod to our twenty years in the wine world. However depending on where you place the accent, the word also translates to winds, which is a strong natural element at our Tuscan wine estate.
Glossy purple in the glass, the Venti 2020 is the colour of perfect blackberries ripe for the picking. The nose is heady, decadent, compelling - those blackberries are there in aroma too with morello cherry, almond and enticing sweet spice, cinnamon,clove and nutmeg.
The taste is exquisite, the wine translates only the positive qualities of this warm vintage, with exuberant ripeness, drenched in forest fruits, generous and mouth filling, sensual and velvety in texture. Tannins form an authoritative frame around the ample fruit and acidity ripples through, subtle but felt. A long and layered finish, scented with spice. Intensely drinkable.
