Tasting notes

Despite some sharp drops in temperature in early April, 2021 was generally mild. The rainy winter period built up the necessary water reserves for excellent vegetative/productive development. Between the end of spring and the end of summer, the temperature rose, which, combined with a lack of rainfall and the healthy Mediterranean winds, ensured perfectly ripened grapes with a splendid aromatic concentration.

Wine Variety: Sangiovese and small amounts of Cabernet Sauvignon

Maturation: 10 months in stainless steel

Alcohol content: 13%

Organoleptic Notes: The 2021 Cala Forte Morellino is a vibrant shade of ruby red. On the nose, the notes of berries such as cherry, raspberry, currant and blueberry alternate with beautiful floral notes of wild rose and violet. The splendid bouquet is finished with spicy notes of black pepper and clove. On the palate, it is dry, warm and slightly tannic.

Wine pairing: Perfect with bolognese, roasted white or red meat, and semi-hard cheeses.

Available formats: 0.75 L
