The wine is typically sourced from younger vines and parcels not selected for the DOCG wines, allowing greater flexibility in élevage and release. The 2016 vintage delivered ripe, healthy fruit with excellent balance, and the wine was fermented with indigenous yeasts, followed by ageing focused on preserving freshness rather than structure. The style is open and expressive, showing bright cherry, redcurrant and subtle earthy notes, with supple tannins and a clean, savoury finish that reflects its Montalcino origins without the weight of extended oak ageing.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003eOrigin \u003cstrong\u003eTuscany, Italy\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003eGrapes \u003cstrong\u003eSangiovese\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003eVintage \u003cstrong\u003e2016\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003eAlcohol \u003cstrong\u003e14%\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003eStyle \u003cstrong\u003eFresh, supple, medium bodied\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003eBottle size \u003cstrong\u003e75cl\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003eWinemaking \u003cstrong\u003eOrganic farming, hand harvested, spontaneous fermentation, restrained ageing to preserve fruit purity\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003eNotes \u003cstrong\u003eEasy Drinking Classic, Organic\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Tenuta Le Potazzine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55409143153016,"sku":"PARUS-16-POT-RED","price":27.4,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0040\/6070\/8993\/files\/Parus_Potazzine.png?v=1767722648"},{"product_id":"igt-toscana-sangiovese-tenuta-le-potazzine-2021","title":"Toscana Sangiovese IGT, Tenuta Le Potazzine 2021","description":"\u003cp\u003eTenuta Le Potazzine is a small organic estate in Montalcino, Tuscany, founded in 1993 by Gigliola Giannetti.
