This \u003cstrong\u003eblend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Alicante\u003c\/strong\u003e offers an intense and well-defined aromatic profile, characterised by notes of Mediterranean scrub, blackcurrant and spicy nuances. On the palate, it displays a \u003cstrong\u003econcentrated structure\u003c\/strong\u003e, well balanced by natural freshness and a \u003cstrong\u003esavoury, enveloping finish\u003c\/strong\u003e, resulting in an elegant glass that precisely reflects the characteristics of the region.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Belguardo vineyards are located in Montebottigli, on hilly slopes a short distance from the Tyrrhenian Sea. The vines grow between 100 and 180 metres above sea level, with south and south-west exposures, where the \u003cstrong\u003esea breezes\u003c\/strong\u003e aid the ripening of the grapes. The distinctive \u003cstrong\u003ecalcareous and sandstone composition\u003c\/strong\u003e of the soils, rich in pebbles, imparts an unmistakable aromatic clarity and a pleasant \u003cstrong\u003esaline sensation\u003c\/strong\u003e to the wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe grapes, carefully \u003cstrong\u003ehand-harvested\u003c\/strong\u003e, come from vines trained using the spur-pruned cordon method. Fermentation and maceration for twenty days take place in temperature-controlled steel tanks. The subsequent ageing lasts fourteen months in \u003cstrong\u003eFrench oak barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e and continues with over a year of bottle ageing, essential for smoothing the tannins. To fully appreciate its complexity, it is recommended to \u003cstrong\u003edecant for one hour\u003c\/strong\u003e before serving.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInspired by the figure of the Etruscan prince Tyrrhenus, the \u003cstrong\u003eBelguardo Tirrenico\u003c\/strong\u003e embodies the noble wine culture handed down through the millennia. This elegant red is born in Montebottigli, where the rows of vines benefit from the salutary influence of breezes from the nearby \u003cstrong\u003eTyrrhenian Sea\u003c\/strong\u003e. The estate, established by the Mazzei Marquises in 1997, combines the image of Leonardo da Vinci's polyhedron with the number 1435 imprinted on the label, a symbol of the \u003cstrong\u003elong family tradition\u003c\/strong\u003e. A tribute to the Maremma that skilfully weaves together the allure of ancient myth with oenological excellence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Belguardo (Mazzei)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44733314400427,"sku":"54264","price":17.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0652\/6789\/2395\/files\/belguardo-maremma-toscana-rosso-tirrenico-2021_54264_1_1906ff64-461c-45d1-9fd7-88dee0fe9741.webp?v=1773746170","url":"https:\/\/xtriwine.com\/products\/belguardo-maremma-toscana-rosso-tirrenico-2021","provider":"Xtrawine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
