Tasting Notes
The Sangiovese, from the Latin “Sangius jovis”, is the predominant grape-variety in this wine and the calm, elegant characteristics of the Cabernet give this wine ample olfactory complexity and greater strength to both body and flavor. The color is deep ruby red, tending to garnet with age. With a dry, full and smooth flavor, rich with personality and well structured, complete and elegant, with an evidently aristocratic character; hints of wood can be perceived amidst the typical herbaceous notes.
The prime quality and structure of this wine demand excellent first courses and risottos with sauces made from wild boar and hare, tasty red meat dishes such as roast game, vegetable soufflé and spicy mature cheeses.

Altezza Winery
in San Gimignano
In the heart of Tuscany, in San Gimignano—the medieval city of a hundred towers—stands Cantina Altezza.
Perched on a hill that seems to touch the sky, it embodies the very essence of its name: a privileged vantage point from which the gaze drifts across the majestic towers of the city.
Here, where the beauty of nature intertwines with tradition, wine is not just a product but a story of family, passion, and terroir.
