Nitrito 2020

Il Borro (hentet 11. okt. 2026): Valdarno di Sopra Cabernet Sauvignon DOC 2020 An organic wine obtained from a vineyard worked with draught horses, a further step towards sustainability. Thanks to the lower soil compression exerted by the horses, the land is more oxygenated, hydrated, and rich in microorganisms. The name Nitrito (Neigh) recalls the sound of the horse, almost a greeting that echoes across the countryside, accompanying the work in the vineyard. Årgangen: The 2020 vintage was characterized by a dry and mild winter, followed by a spring with quite high temperatures until May, interrupted by a series of copious downpours in June, which gave way to a very hot summer. A few thunderstorms at the beginning of September led to a fairly early harvest, with excellent quality in the gathered grapes. Smagsnote (teknisk ark Nitrito2020-scheda-eng.pdf): Profil: A sophisticated and elegant wine. Farve: A deep, dark ruby red. Aroma: To the nose, a delightful balsamic note intertwines with aromas of blackberry, blueberry and red flowers, flowing into elegant spices such as clove, pepper and anise, together with a hue of alpine herbs, helichrysum and leather. Smag: In the mouth the wine is full-bodied, powerful but elegant, with silky tannins that lead way to a long, balsamic aftertaste. Mad: The wine lends itself to pairings with meat and refined game dishes, such as venison fillet or wildboar in “dolceforte”.
