Serraluna Toscana Rosso 2024 is a distinguished Baby SuperTuscan that embodies the essence of Tuscany’s rich terroir and Stefano di Blasi’s masterful winemaking expertise. Crafted from meticulously selected Sangiovese grapes sourced from central Tuscany, where the variety achieves optimum ripeness, this wine is a harmonious blend that also features Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot from the Tuscan coast near Bolgheri. This careful selection brings both structure and depth, balancing elegance with power.
Stefano di Blasi, renowned for his pivotal role in the ‘Consorzio Tuscania’ research program on Sangiovese between 2007 and 2011, brings decades of experience and passion to this vintage. His background includes collaborations with iconic winemakers and contributions to legendary wines such as Tignanello and Solaia, the latter being the first Italian wine to top Wine Spectator’s Top 100. This heritage is evident in the refined craftsmanship of Serraluna Toscana Rosso.
The wine undergoes a thoughtful maturation process, with a portion of the Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot aging in new French oak barrels. This technique softens the wood impact, preserving the delicate nuances of the Sangiovese. After nine months, the wine is blended and allowed to marry in tank before bottling, resulting in a well-integrated and balanced profile.
Serraluna Toscana Rosso 2024 offers an inviting bouquet of ripe red berries, subtle spice, and hints of Mediterranean herbs. On the palate, it reveals a layered complexity with smooth tannins and a lingering finish, making it a versatile choice for pairing with a variety of dishes or enjoying on its own.
This wine is a testament to Stefano’s commitment to making exceptional Tuscan wines accessible without compromising quality or authenticity. Experience the vibrant character and refined elegance that define this Baby SuperTuscan, a true reflection of Tuscany’s winemaking tradition and innovation.
