PUGNITELLO

The very special local – Rosso di Toscana
I.G.T. – Indicazione Geografica Tipica

The traditional, native grape variety Pugnitello was brought back to life by the University of Florence together with the San Felice winery. We make an expressive wine from it, featuring an intense ruby red colour, which captivates with a fine plum aroma and flatters the palate thanks to fruity and spicy notes of cassis. The sweet and enveloping tannins give this extraordinary wine its structure and longevity.
