Description
Ciacci Piccolomini d’Aragona Toscana Rosso is made from Sangiovese Grosso sourced from the youngest vineyard plots near those dedicated to Rosso di Montalcino DOC and Brunello di Montalcino DOCG. The vineyards are planted on medium-grained soils with good levels of marl, dating from the Eocene period, at an altitude of 240 to 360 metres above sea level. This versatile wine is designed for approachable, everyday drinking, combining body, softness, and balance.
