Elba Rosso DOC “Le Cote”

11,00 
Wine obtained from Sangiovese grapes, widespread on the Island of Elba and preserved through the traditional practice of grafting in the field, and in small part from Merlot. It has a ruby red color, with a fresh, intense and persistent aroma, with hints of red fruit and undergrowth. The taste is dry, full-bodied, harmonious, with pleasant roughness in youth that fades with time.

Information

The low production obtained in the vineyard (about 50 hectoliters per hectare) gives a good structure and valuable tannic balance to Elba Rosso, which is in any case placed in the bottle after adequate maturation in the cellar, generally in the year following the harvest.

It goes well with first courses with meat sauce, red meats and medium-aged cheeses.
It is served in large glasses at a temperature of about 18 degrees.
The annual production is about 8,500 bottles.
