Principe Guerriero - COSTA TOSCANA IGT

Sangiovese 100%
MontescudaioDOC Organic Wine

Here, the idea of a pure Sangiovese took off immediately, with the first harvest of 2001.

One of the noblest grape varieties in inland Tuscany, but perhaps not yet fully exploited on the coast, it was a surprise from the first harvest for the complexity and elegance of the wine obtained.

"Principe Guerriero" is the result of a careful selection of the best grapes in the vineyard and of a process in the cellar aimed at respecting the grapes.

Destemming, traditional pumping over, use of natural yeasts, all contribute to obtaining this great wine.

After racking, it rests 12 months in tonneau and another 12 months in bottle for final aging.
According to our historical data and to many experts' confirmations, this wine has an average life of about 15 years from its release, under normal storage conditions.

Azienda Agricola Pagani de Marchi is a small jewel at the foot of Casale M.mo, between Bibbona and Cecina.

Built on Etruscan soil, it is renowned for being the archaeological site that has seen the re-emergence of the tomb of an Etruscan prince and in his honor produces a Sangiovese wine called "Principe Guerriero".

Sangiovese, Merlot and Cabernet are the masters, together with Vermentino for the white wine, on this hill of only 6 hectares, once cultivated with arable crops and now cradle of precious and well cared vines.

Always devoted to the highest quality, Pagani de Marchi produces since 2016 an absolute novelty: Cabernet Sauvignon in purity vinified entirely in terracotta amphora.
