For over 40 years, grape varieties have been systematically researched and selected here. The \u003cem\u003eCum Laude\u003c\/em\u003e —Latin for \u0026quot;with distinction\u0026quot;—is the result: a blend of the four red varieties that, over 25 years of research, have proven to be best suited to the soils around Montalcino. Sangiovese forms the backbone, complemented by Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Syrah.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In the glass, the 2022 vintage displays dark cherry and blackberry, along with notes of cedar and a subtle spiciness from the oak aging. The tannins are present but well-integrated—medium body, lively acidity, pleasantly long finish. The gold medal at Mundus Vini 2025 confirms the quality of this vintage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eRecommendation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pairs well with Bistecca alla Fiorentina, leg of lamb with rosemary jus, or a flavorful hard cheese such as Pecorino Stagionato.
