The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine In the heart of Tuscany, near Florence, Tenuta Il Palagio has been the haven for singer Sting and his wife Trudie for over 20 years. Nestled within Chianti, this stunning 26-hectare vineyard, cultivated organically, pulses with the rhythm of Italy. On this sun-drenched land, Sangiovese reigns supreme. We wanted to collaborate to craft a distinctive cuvée, a wine that, through its aromas and flavors, breathes the essence of Tuscany.
Wine Crafted predominantly from 90% Sangiovese, the 2020 Red IGT Toscana Shape of My Heart captivates effortlessly. The enticing aroma of stone fruits and spices, minimally influenced by aging, maintains a warm allure. This is perfectly complemented by a hint of graphite freshness from the Cabernet. The palate is refined and easy-going, revealing a delicate, refreshing essence and praiseworthy gentle tannins. This delightful wine beckons to be enjoyed without hesitation. Rated 92/100 by the Committee.
