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.
