Tasting Notes

Discover the rich and bold character of the Sangiovese 2022, a premium red wine that reflects the essence of Tuscany’s winemaking tradition. This Sangiovese shines with a deep ruby-red color, offering a bouquet of ripe cherries, plums, and delicate floral notes of violet. On the palate, it delivers a perfect balance between freshness and structure, with velvety tannins and a long, spicy finish. This wine is the ideal companion for hearty meals, yet elegant enough to enjoy on its own for special occasions.

Sangiovese

Region of Origin

Produced in the IGT Toscana region, the 2022 Sangiovese benefits from Tuscany’s ideal winemaking conditions. With a climate that features warm days and cool nights, the region produces grapes with intense flavor concentration. The unique combination of the Tuscan sun and the mineral-rich soil gives this Sangiovese its vibrant acidity and complex character.

The Grapes

Sangiovese is the flagship grape of Tuscany, known for producing wines with elegance, complexity, and a deep connection to the region’s terroir. The 2022 vintage was marked by optimal growing conditions, allowing the Sangiovese grapes to fully ripen and develop rich, concentrated flavors. This wine highlights the hallmark qualities of Sangiovese: vibrant red fruit, balanced acidity, and a smooth, lingering finish.

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.
