Tasting Notes
"A lovely mix of sweet violets, roses and lavender gives way to tart cherries as the 2020 Sangiovese Romagna Modigliana Vigna Beccaccia blossoms in the glass. This is round in style and vividly fruity, with ripe red berries and sour citrus notes that cascade across the palate. Zesty acidity keeps the style fresh throughout, as the 2020 finishes with a sour twang and lightly structured. The Vigna Beccaccia goes through carbonic maceration with whole clusters for ten days."

More Info
Located in the unique terroir of Modigliana, on the border of Emilia Romagna and Tuscany, Villa Papiano's vineyards are the highest in the area, planted on terraces between 450-570 metres above sea level. Their wines are defined by the estate's high elevation and steep slopes, ancient soils of marl and sandstone, and unique microclimates created by the dense forest that surrounds them. Farming organically, in a way that respects their incredible surroundings and winemaking with minimal intervention, the Bordini family focus almost exclusively on indigenous varieties and old clones. These are remarkable wines from a terroir that we're adamant will soon be talk of the town.
