The Toscana Rosso DA-DI 2021 is an ode to Tuscan winemaking. At Avignonesi, the pursuit of excellence goes hand in hand with innovation in 100% Tuscan winemaking traditions. The goal is to allow the terroir to shine, free from external influences. For this particular wine, Avignonesi set aside steel and oak in favor of pure Tuscan clay amphorae. This unique aging method enhances the authenticity and purity of the Sangiovese grape. DA-DI is vinified in 13 handcrafted terracotta vessels, all made in Tuscany. Eight amphorae were crafted by Artenova in Impruneta, while five were produced by Laboratorio San Rocco in Torrita di Siena, using Monte Amiata clay. This careful selection of Tuscan terracotta enhances the purity and vibrancy of Sangiovese, ensuring a unique and authentic expression of the terroir. It can't get any more 'Toscano' than this. The 2021 vintage was a year of challenges and resilience.
