Produced by La Parrina, this super Tuscan is simply categorized as dry red wine, however it goes far beyond in its body, aroma and taste. Its balanced, full-body is paired with bold aromas and assertive tannins.
La Parrina is a 450 hectare estate stretching over the foothills along the Tyrrhenian coast in the Southern part of Maremma. The estate took shape at the beginning of the nineteenth century and it has remained in the hands of the Giuntini family ever since. The name Parrina is derived from the Castilian word parra, meaning vine or pergola.
Tuscany is the quintessential Italian wine region, a place where the Renaissance was born and the Church has reigned. Wine has found a place as one of the most humble of comforts with the people of Tuscany, on the table at every meal or served with a piece of bread as the meal itself. Though all made from the most famous of Tuscan grapes, Sangiovese, Tuscany is the birthplace of some of the most recognizable Italian wines: Chianti and Brunello di Montalcino. Italy's also a land of district microclimates, so while traditional red's feature the sangiovese grape, they can showcase different lands of structure and flavor characteristics.
