Le Cinciole - Petresco Colli della Toscana IGT 2019

Continue Shopping Add to Wish List

Sourced from the highest vineyard, Le Cinciole Petresco has been produced as an IGT since 2009. 

Fabulous, powerful and dense – renowned critic Antonio Galloni doesn't mince words when describing the exquisite 2018 Le Cinciole Petresco made from 100% Sangiovese. Located in the Conca d'Oro ("golden basin") below Panzano high in the Tuscan hills, Podere Le Cinicole embodies the passion and dedication of owners Luca and Valeria Orsini. Since the purchase of the estate in 1991, the owners have replanted and moved farming practices to biodynamic and organic, cultivating almost exclusively Sangiovese on their land. With wines ranging from Chianti Classico to this spectacular 2018 Petresco, Luca and Valeria are hands on from vineyard management to the winemaking.

The 2019 Petresco picks up where the 2018 left off, although it is perhaps a bit more reserved at this stage than its older sibling was. Deceptive in its mid-weight structure, the 2019 possesses notable depth and intensity. Time in the glass brings out shades of red/purplish Sangiovese fruit mixed with suggestions of new leather, spice and menthol. The 2019 spent two years in wood (equal parts cask and barrique) followed by a year in cement.
