For four consecutive years, Saracosa Governo has earned an impressive 98-point rating from renowned Italian critic Luca Maroni, establishing itself as a splendid and opulent red from Italy.
It boasts an intense black cherry profile, intertwined with notes of mocha and spice, amplified by the use of dried Sangiovese and Merlot grapes.Smooth and captivating, this wine is a harmonious blend of Sangiovese and Merlot, matured for a span of four months in small oak barrels. Notably, a portion of the grapes undergo a 20-day drying process, enhancing the wine's concentration—a winemaking technique known as Governo, with roots dating back to 14th-century Tuscany.
Embraced by critics and customers alike, Luca Maroni's consistent 98-point accolades over four years and Oz Clarke's description as "hedonists' heaven" underscore its acclaim.
This exceptional wine is a testament to the winemaking prowess of Sofia Barbanera, whose family has nurtured vines on the Saracosa hill in Tuscany since the 1940s.
The wine boasts a 13.5% alcohol by volume (ABV).
