Niccolo’ Lari | ‘ L’ Imprevisto ’

A young and crunchy expression of Sangiovese, which focuses above all on the primary aromas of the grape, brought into the glass

Variety: Sangiovese 100%
Age of the vineyard: 25-40 years

Refinement: at least 8 months in concrete tanks.

Pure Sangiovese, obtained from old vineyards, courageously recovered by Niccolò Lari on the hills of Malmantile in the province of Florence. The color is garnet red, clear, and transparent. The olfactory notes open generously and seductively: floral notes, in the first instance, of sweet violet and red rose; notes of fresh red fruit, small red fruits, wild strawberries, raspberries, fresh cherries, blood oranges; spices such as pink pepper and cinnamon. Freshness dominates the palate, with a substantial noble tannin, perfectly integrated and elegant! Balanced and relatively persistent, it is a lively wine with good complexity. The pairing? Dare to try a soup based on fish or shellfish, slightly lowering the temperature of the wine. 

Alcohol content: 12.5% ​​vol
Bottles: 1500 bottles
Pairings: First courses, meat and cheeses.
