Tasting Notes
Caiarossa's Pergolaia 2020 is ruby red with garnet highlights. Its complex nose blends aromas of ripe red fruit, coffee, black pepper and dried flowers, adding depth. On the palate, it stands out for its full structure and intensity, underpinned by silky tannins and remarkable freshness. The warm, soothing finish leaves a pleasant sensation of bitter citrus, offering refined persistence. This wine perfectly embodies the estate's biodynamic approach, with a pure, vibrant expression of its Tuscan terroir.

Vinification and Aging
The grapes undergo maceration on the skins for 15 to 25 days, followed by fermentation in concrete tanks using only indigenous yeasts. Malolactic fermentation takes place in both cement tanks and wooden barrels. The wine is then aged for 12 to 14 months in old tonneaux, followed by an additional 10 months in a mix of cement and oak barrels.
