The Sangiovese Tales

QX Toscana I.G.T. Rosato

Quercus ilex is the Latin name of the holm oak. We have some beautiful specimens growing at the Capezzine Farm, the most majestic being the one just next to our cherished Vinsantaia. We wanted to dedicate a special wine to our beloved Capezzine Farm and we couldn’t choose anything else but the name of this immense, inspiring tree for it.

2023 vintage

The 2023 vintage will be remembered as one of the most complex and demanding seasons ever faced. The final quality of the grapes, remarkable given the conditions, only partially offsets an unprecedented loss in volume. It was a year that laid bare the fragility of our profession and highlighted the growing need to live with an increasingly structural climatic uncertainty.

tasting notes

The “onion skin” colour is a delicate pale pink typical of Sangiovese rosé. On the nose, the bouquet of QX is complex, with light aromas of pear and grapefruit harmoniously blending with deep notes of oak, butter, and vanilla. The entry on the palate is refreshing and decisive, with the flavours perceived on the nose reappearing on the palate. The wine stands out for its savouriness and persistence, with notes of pink grapefruit and flint emerging on the aftertaste.
