Giardino Toscana Rosé Santa Cristina IGT 2024 75 cl.

Giardino Toscana, vintage 2024, comes from the soft, rolling landscape of central Tuscany, where the vineyards benefit from a warm Mediterranean climate and calcareous, clay-rich soils. The vines are grown at altitudes of up to 400 metres above sea level, giving the grapes optimal growing conditions with good drainage and significant temperature differences between day and night. This microclimate promotes the development of complex aromas and preserves the grapes’ natural freshness – an essential factor in the wine’s elegant and balanced style.

The wine opens with an inviting bouquet of ripe cherries, blackcurrants and a touch of violet, supported by subtle spices and a hint of tobacco from oak ageing. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied with soft tannins and lively acidity, providing good balance and freshness. The finish is pleasantly persistent, with notes of red berries and a light mineral touch that reflects the wine’s Tuscan origin. A harmonious and versatile wine, well suited to classic Italian cuisine as well as cosy, relaxed moments.

Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve the grapes’ fruity character, and maceration lasts approximately 10–12 days to extract colour and fine tannins. After malolactic fermentation, the wine is aged in a combination of stainless steel tanks and partly used oak barrels for up to 6 months, adding structure and roundness without overpowering the fresh fruit.
