Picchio Rosso is born from the blend of Sangiovese and Merlot. The grapes are hand-picked and the fermentation is made in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature for 20 days, then aged in new, one-year, and two-year old oak barrels for 12-14 months. The wine is then bottled and held for another 12 months before being released.

"A true and honest expression of Sangiovese with spiciness and pure fruit that will only get better with age."
