Description and characteristics

"Lupicaia", a name and a guarantee for all lovers of great Tuscan red wines. Yes, because this label embodies the best of Castello del Terriccio's production, and it is the one that has made the winery known all over the world, also thanks to the excellent scores that, year after year, it continues to conquer internationally. An elegant and prestigious bottle, in which the aromas are intense and the drink is satisfying, with balance and harmony.

A great wine, to be reserved for the most important occasions. The red wine "Lupicaia" comes from a skilful blend that the team of the Castello del Terriccio winery assembles, combining 90% Cabernet Sauvignon with 10% Petit Verdot. The grapes of these varieties, carefully selected during the harvest in order to guarantee only the best of the terroir of origin, ferment separately, macerating for a long time on the skins. Then we proceed with the important phase of refinement, which takes place first for 24 months in French oak tonneau, of which at least 6 are spent on the fine lees, and then, after bottling, for another 12 months directly in glass.

Intense ruby ​​red color. The nose shows a bouquet characterized by aromas of small red fruits, notes of spices, balsamic and mineral hints. On the palate it is broad, well-structured, warm, with a well-integrated tannic texture and a balanced freshness. The finish is persistent.
