Vigna di Pallino 2021
Pure Sangiovese, vinified in steel to emphasize the varietal’s primary characteristics and aromas. It thus maintains a great freshness of flavor, with fruity hints of cherry and floral hints of violets. Fresh and balanced on the palate, it highlights delicate tannins and nice return of fragrant fruit. The wine is dedicated to Pallino, a farmer who cared for the vineyards in the 1950s. A wine that represents the historical continuity of the winery and the traditions of the area.
Vintage Notes
The seasonal trend of the 2021 vintage was fairly regular. The rains of the spring period allowed good vegetative development and provided an important water reserve to face the drier summer months. The only phenomenon that could be noted, in the spring period, is the slight dissimilarity in the timing of shoot growth, due to a few days after Easter that recorded temperatures below the seasonal average, momentarily halting vegetative development in the cooler areas. At the health level, there was no pressure from fungal diseases (powdery mildew and peronospera).
