PUGNITELLO TOSCANA IGT
Tasting notes
A dense purplish hue, with a remarkably rich nose, offering cinnamon, clove, wild fruit preserves, and tobacco leaf. Velvety-smooth, ultra-savory palate that magnificently reproduces the fragrances encountered on the nose.
Pairings
Perfect with meat-sauced first courses, roast guinea-fowl, and veal.
Why we like it
Pugnitello is an ancient Tuscan native grape variety, whose name (little fist) refers to the shape of its cluster. Following its rediscovery, it has been researched, in collaboration with the universities of Florence and Pisa, in San Felice’s experimental vineyard. The wine is the fruit of 20 years of study and experimentation focused on saving native Tuscan grapes from extinction. Pugnitello is noteworthy for its distinctive characteristics, smoothness, and full-bodied concentration.
