La Carraia Tizzonero IGP Wine 75cl

"Tizzonero" owes its name to its deep color and relatively low yields per hectare. On the nose, it evokes notes of sour cherry, blackcurrant, chocolate, cinchona, and licorice.
The flavor of the volcanic soil and the richness of the extract resonate on the palate. The finish is soft, juicy, and beautifully persistent. Enjoyable with lamb chops, pheasant, roast duck, or polenta with cheese.

The winery was originally located beneath the family home, but is now housed in a new building adjacent to the house, built from scratch in the early 2000s. This is where all post-harvest activities are carried out, from vinification to aging and bottling. Equipped with the most modern and efficient technologies, the winery's primary goal is to maximize the quality of the grapes it processes. To this end, cold maceration, bleeding, pumping over, and punching down are employed. Of particular importance is the barrique cellar, entirely hand-dug out of the typical Orvieto tuff stone, which naturally enjoys the ideal temperature and humidity for aging our cru wines.
