Our online feature this week is the Fattoria la Lecciaia Rosso di Toscana IGT (Tuscany, Italy) – $20.49, regularly $24.99.
Fattoria la Lecciaia is part of a new breed of Montalcino producers, blending vision and respect for the region’s long winemaking traditions. Careful faming and attention to detail brings out true Sangiovese character in their lineup showcasing balance, structure and elegance.
Our feature this week is their Rosso di Toscanna, a 70% Sangiovese blend with the rest Cabernet and Merlot. Vibrant notes of ripe cherries, red plums, and a hint of dried herbs, framed by soft tannins and a whisper of spice from gentle oak aging. Medium-bodied and lively, it’s a versatile red that balances rustic charm with elegance, it is a delicious mini-Super Tuscan. Try it with a vegetable lasagna or margherita pizza.
