Tasting Notes: The Ampeleia Ampeleia is the top tier cuvee from the estate and is incredibly expressive of rich dark fruit, wild herbs and wet earth. Bold and powerful ripe red cherry and mint comes from the Cabernet Franc, which is the main portion of the blend, with an earthy charm lended from the Sangiovese.
Estate History: Ampeleia is located in Maremma (Tuscany) on the Colline Metallifere (Metal hills) and is characterized by its high-rise from 200 to 600m above sea level that conveys biodiversity. It is a biodynamic farm managed by a group of young people in which Marco Tait expresses the vision of Elisabetta Foradori and Giovanni Podini and the terroir through the wines (Cabernet Franc and Mediterranean varieties).
