INSOGLIO DEL CINGHIALE 2024
Toscana IGT Rosso
.
Blend: consisting mainly of Syrah followed by Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc.
Soyl type: part clay, part Bolgheri conglomerate.
Warmer soils with a prevalence of sand are dedicated to Syrah.
Vine traning system: spurred cordon vine training system with a density of 6,500 vines/ha.
Climatic conditions: the 2024 vintage proved to be unique, presenting both challenges and opportunities. After a regular winter, spring brought early budding followed by abundant rainfall, which slowed ripening but ensured water reserves for the summer. The alternating climate after mid-August, with both heat and rainfall, led to a cooler harvest, preserving aromas and acidity. Early varieties such as Vermentino, Syrah, and Merlot benefited, while the later-ripening ones matured more slowly, adding complexity to the future wines. A surprising vintage, full of discoveries.
Harvest: the 2024 harvest, carried out during the coolest hours of the day, began in early September with Syrah and Merlot. It continued with Petit Verdot around mid-September, followed by Cabernet Franc, and ended with Cabernet Sauvignon in the first week of October.
Vinification and ageing: the grapes are carefully selected on the vibrating conveyor belt and then destemmed and finally crushed. Taking care to keep the di#erent varieties separate, this is followed by alcoholic fermentation and maceration in temperature-controlled steel tanks at a maximum of 28°C for 14 to 21 days. After spontaneous malolactic fermentation, the wine is blended and aged for about 6 months, partly in stainless steel and partly in wood, before bottling.
Tasting notes
Colour: intense and lively purple red with violet reflections.
Nose: violet, berries and light peppery spice. Clear aromas of Mediterranean maquis such as myrtle and rosemary, boisée nuance well integrated with roasting notes.
Taste: enveloping, fresh and medium-bodied, with well-smoothed tannins. The pleasant drinkability is combined with excellent persistence.
