Description
Luca Maroni 99 Rating
When you owe everything you own and have to the grandfather and head of the family, Luigi, nicknamed Gigino, it is not without a certain awe that you send a tribute wine to him on the market. It just HAS to perform on all parameters! Here, however, Luigi’s successors can breathe a sigh of relief: “Barbanera – Gigino” lives up to all the demands you can make of a wine.
Winery Notes
Sensual red and dark fruits scents of blueberry, wild blackberry and spirited fruits are pronounced on the palate, while delicate hints of white chocolate, vanilla and toasted spices linger in the background. The full-bodied and persistent taste creates an olfactory and gustatory well-balanced mouthfeel.
Blend of Sangiovese, Merlot, Petit Verdot, Syrah
Winery Description
The Barbanera family has been producing first-class wines for over 80 years. For the milestone anniversary in 2018, the Barbanera family pressed the Gigino 80 Anniversario Toscana. Gigino was the nickname of Luigi Barbanera, son of the winery’s founders. The grapes are picked by hand in the cool morning hours and slowly fermented at cool temperatures and then macerated to extract the maximum of color and natural aromas from the grapes.
