Description

Description

Summus is a deep Supertuscan of unmatched elegance that exceptionally represents the potential of its 3 varieties. The fruit and structure of the Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon are enhanced by the style and bouquet of the Syrah.

The 3 varieties are vinified and aged separately for 12-14 months in French oak. They are then blended and aged for an additional 10-12 months in barrels and finally remain in the bottle for 6 months before release.

The intensity of the nose is seductive and rich with sweet fruity aromas of cherries and plums accompanied by notes of spices, smoke, and coffee. Density and a full character on the palate with prolonged flavors of jam and vanilla come into perfect balance with the acidity and dynamic tannins, setting the stage for a long, juicy finish. It is exceptionally suited for long aging.

Food pairing:

  • Ideal with red meat
  • Stews
  • Pasta with rich sauces
  • Aged cheeses
