Il Carbonaione

Alta Valle della Greve IGT

This is the wine conceived and desired by Vittorio Fiore after long years of study, thought, and working experience and it is the result of an exceptional pairing and synergy: Sangiovese and the Ruffoli vineyards in Greve in Chianti. The results of this synergy – the grapes harvested in the Carbonaione vineyard – are worked with passion and dedication by Vittorio Fiore and his son Jurij in order to obtain a wine of great power and elegance, one capable of expressing in all of its richness the terroir in which it is born.

    Opened a bottle Carbonanione vintage 2008 now, 2022: Excellent! Mid-intense, evolved, dried berries, sour cherries, red meat juice, full despite being only 13%, high acidity, velvet tannins.
