Drink it now or cellar for up to 15-20 years. It is recommended to decant it for an hour.
Located between the Ambra and Ombrone rivers, and surrounded by hills covered with vineyards, the Arceno Estate boasts an ancient winemaking tradition dating back to the 10th century. In 1994, it has been bought by the Jackson family. The 92 hectares devoted to the cultivation of vines are divided into more than 60 micro-crus to obtain from every single vine the maximum potential and the highest quality in the final products.
The Sangiovese grapes destined for the production of this fine wine come from the La porta vineyard located in front of the door of the San Gusmè walled cell. The micro-cru that bears the name of the same vineyard was planted in 1998 on soil composed of sandstone, limestone, and clay. The Strada al Sasso is characterized by good body and great longevity, in fact, before being put on the market, it ages for at least 30 months, 3 of which are in the bottle according to the regulations.
The wine reveals delicate sweet aromas of black cherry, cassis, tobacco, and iris, with tones of licorice stick. In the mouth, it is elegant with an acid-savory backbone, a full body with full and decisive tannins. The aftertaste is long. Try it with Pappardelle with wild boar, Asiago, Manchego, or stuffed guinea fowl.
