Roast ChickenPasta with Tomato SaucePizza
Fattoria Fugnano is located in the medieval hilltop town of San Gimignano, Tuscany. There is a rich history of grape growing and winemaking in this area dating back to the Middle Ages.
When present day owner and winemaker, Laura, left Palermo, Sicily, to help out with the harvest at Fattoria Fugnano after her grandfather passed away, she could not have imagined the new trajectory her life was about take. She loved rural life in Tuscany and vineyard work so much she ended up staying and now owns and operates the estate thus carrying on her family’s legacy. She has great respect and love of the environment and employs sustainable practices in the vineyard and winery.
Tasting Notes
A fresh and fragrant nose of sweet red cherries and wild strawberries. The palate is medium bodied with bright juicy acidity and crunchy red fruit flavours and pleasing integrated tannins. This is a red wine style that would pair with a range of foods; enjoy with Italian antipasti, pasta with a simple tomato sauce, pizza or a roast chicken dinner.
Method
A traditional blend of 90% Sangiovese and 10% Canaiolo. The wine ferments in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature for 14 days followed by malolactic fermentation also in stainless steel. The result is a fresh, fragrant wine with concentrated primary red fruit notes balancing acidity.
