Description:
Winemaking at Il Borro dates back to 1760 when the estate was under the rule of the noble Medici-Tornaquinci Family, since 1999 however the Ferragamo Family in conjunction with enologist Niccolo D'Afflitto have developed the winemaking process and opened a new state of the art winery. The estate, which extends over 700 hectares currently has 40 hectares of that land dedicated to vines. The soil has an excellent structure with a good sandy composition which denotes itself to the growing of five varieties of vine: Merlot, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Sangiovese and Petit Verdot all of which are used in this blend. The grapes are accurately hand selected before soft crushing. The alcoholic fermentation lasts 10 days at 30°C, the maceration on the skins continues for a further 22 days. The wine is then racked in Allier oak barriques, in which the malo-lactic fermentation takes place, ageing for 12 month and fining for an additional 6 months. Intense ruby red coloured wine with purple reflections and an intense, rich vinous, complex bouquet of red berries, underbrush and sweet spices. This blend is dry, full-bodied, warm, smooth, luscious and has well integrated tannins, intense, well balanced, with a very long and pleasant finish. (6 x 75 cl)
