Produced with Ciliegiolo grapes through fermentation in steel and ageing in large oak barrels, it stands out for its balanced and well-structured profile, where freshness meets a \u003cstrong\u003evelvety texture\u003c\/strong\u003e with a distinct savoury note. On the nose, the bouquet reveals clear hints of cherry, accompanied by intriguing notes of \u003cstrong\u003eMediterranean scrub\u003c\/strong\u003e, with balsamic hints of eucalyptus and bay leaf. The palate is direct and enveloping, with a clean and harmonious finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis expression is born in the landscapes of the \u003cstrong\u003eTuscan Maremma\u003c\/strong\u003e, produced by the Petra brand as part of the Belvento project. The vineyards, Guyot-trained, are rooted in \u003cstrong\u003eclay-sandy soils\u003c\/strong\u003e with a slight limestone matrix. These geological characteristics, combined with careful agricultural management and a limited yield, favour the optimal development of the vine. This pedoclimatic harmony enhances the natural savouriness of the Ciliegiolo, delivering a clear \u003cstrong\u003eterritorial typicality\u003c\/strong\u003e and a pleasant smoothness in the glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eProcessing begins with fermentation in steel, fundamental for preserving the integrity and freshness of the fruit. Subsequently, the wine is aged for six months in \u003cstrong\u003elarge oak barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e, an essential step that enriches its roundness without overpowering the varietal aromas. Ideal to be served at around sixteen degrees, after one hour of decanting in a medium-sized glass, this red is perfect for accompanying \u003cstrong\u003epasta dishes\u003c\/strong\u003e and selections of \u003cstrong\u003echeeses\u003c\/strong\u003e, elegantly enhancing moments of conviviality.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGenetically related to Sangiovese, legend has it that Ciliegiolo reached Tuscany with pilgrims returning from Santiago. Its essence takes shape in Belvento, a project established in 1997 by the \u003cstrong\u003ePetra winery\u003c\/strong\u003e. Thanks to the meticulous care of the clay-sandy soils, this red wine is aged for six months in \u003cstrong\u003elarge oak casks\u003c\/strong\u003e. The result is a harmonious glass that blends the ancient vocation of the grape variety with the authentic identity of the \u003cstrong\u003eMaremma\u003c\/strong\u003e, offering a tasting experience capable of celebrating the true tradition of the Tuscan region.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Petra","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47511900192939,"sku":"62317","price":17.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0652\/6789\/2395\/files\/belvento-toscana-ciliegiolo-2025_62317_1_71ec2d2b-0d89-48ef-bab2-53f3ef028b9f.webp?v=1788016103","url":"https:\/\/xtriwine.com\/en-fi\/products\/belvento-toscana-ciliegiolo-2025","provider":"Xtrawine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
