G.Punto Costa Toscana IGP 2020

Bright, light cherry red, light rim

G. Punto 2020 is a new wine from Duemani, both visually and stylistically. The single-varietal Grenache offers a successful complement to the otherwise international grape varieties. The aromas appear dark and deep without giving a feeling of heaviness. Nothing is overripe or concentrated. Pickled morello cherries stand alongside figs, mulberries and raspberries in the glass. It has plenty of spice from cinnamon, juniper and black pepper. Vegetable and earthy notes in the form of beetroot, artichoke and tomato clearly overlay the fruit. Black olives and basil give it a warm feeling along the way.

On the palate, G. Punto is then polished and precisely situated. With clearly more bite and a sharp blade. For a wine from Luca d'Attoma, it is also surprisingly slender and light in its appearance. Only a fine-grained tannin lies across the palate. It comes much more through the pressure and the silky, elegant mouthfeel. With this, it completely clothes the palate. The fruit presents itself extremely dark, almost sinister, but never heavy or dense. De Grenache radiates great elegance. With a lot of length on the palate and a profound structure, it is more like a Pinot Noir than the usual representatives of this Mediterranean variety. In the finish, there are noticeable floral hints that provide it with additional finesse.
