Rocca Di Frassinello Maremma Toscana

The first label, le grand vin according to the Bordeaux classification, the maximum expression of the Italian-French project. A wine that has succeeded at the highest levels since the first harvest, that of 2004. A wine for great competition, according to Christian Le Sommer, the winemaker of Les Domaines Baron de Rothschild-Lafite, who created it together with Alessandro Cellai.

Intense ruby red color with garnet reflections. A wine that manages to combine strength, intensity, elegance, with soft tannins that make it round in the mouth. On the nose it is fruity and with a nice spiciness. In the mouth the taste is deep, but lively and well-balanced.
