About This Wine

Region: Tuscany, Italy
Varieties: Sangiovese (80%), merlot (15%) and canaiolo (5%)

“The traditional wine-making method known as ‘Governo all’uso toscano’ consists of a slow re-fermentation of the wine with the addition of partially-dried grapes. During the delicate ‘appassimento’ period, the bunches have to be kept perfectly healthy so as to produce grapes that are highly concentrated and maintain the wholesomeness of the fruit intact.”- San Polo

These wines are similar to the Ripasso wines of Veneto and offer a seemingly impossible balance between freshness and concentration.

San Polo was founded in 1990 and welcomed the Allegrini family in 2007. Based on a phenomenal site on the southern slope of Montalcino, the addition of the Allegrini’s at the helm, the estate has soared. The Allegrini’s have brought welcome innovation and investment to the area and estate. Their modern, cutting edge winery allows winemaker Riccardo Fratton to focus on expressing their terroir with utmost honesty and quality.
