IL SEVERO IGT TOSCANA
Wine is a centuries-old art in motion and in constant evolution.
IL SEVERO was born from an intuition: to represent a vintage by interpreting it at its maximum expression among the grapes present in the company with the exception of Sangiovese.
Elegant nose with notes of cassis and red tea; in the mouth the wine finds energy in a beautiful acid verve which makes the sip sapid, fragrant, long and memorable.
