Il Corzanello Rosso IGT 2023

Wine description for Il Corzanello Rosso IGT 2023 from Corzano e Paterno

Colour & appearance

A transparent, lively ruby red with youthful violet reflections, reflecting the freshness of the vintage.

Nose

The unmistakable signature of Tuscany is immediately apparent - a precise aromatic profile of small red cherries, Mediterranean laurel and a fine herbal spice. Despite the considerable proportion of Cabernet, the wine remains true to its terroir, with subtle hints of tobacco, fine leather and the characteristic maquis vegetation that lends depth and authenticity to the bouquet.

Palate

On the palate, the Corzanello impresses with its transparent structure and medium body. The fruit is clear and precise, supported by a refreshing acidity that gives the wine vibrancy. The tannins are finely marked - the result of the deliberately short maceration - and blend harmoniously into the overall picture. The finish is of medium length with cool, herbal-spicy notes that are typical of the region.

General information

This precisely composed cuvée made from Sangiovese, cabernet sauvignon and a touch of Merlot is made from selected grapes from the estate's coolest vineyards. The spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts at controlled temperatures between 18-22°C and the subsequent five-month maturation in steel tanks preserve the primary aromas and emphasise the terroir-influenced character of this unpretentious everyday wine.

Food pairing suggestions

A versatile accompaniment to Tuscan cuisine - excellent with Pasta with wild boar ragout, grilled vegetables and medium-ripe pecorino. Its moderate tannin structure and lively acidity also make it an ideal partner for Antipasti and Pizza Margherita.

Special features

Il Corzanello Rosso 2023 epitomises the philosophy of Corzano e Paterno: authenticity without frills. It is not a complex meditation wine, but an honest, direct expression of Tuscany that impresses with its accessibility and drinking pleasure. A wine that convinces without grand gestures and delivers exactly what you would expect from a well-made Tuscan Rosso - enjoyment without complication.
