47th Toscanello d'Oro

In the historic centre of Pontassieve, from 31 May to 5 June 2015, the 47th Toscanello d'Oro will take place, the celebrated Pontassieve festival where visitors can taste the wines of the estates of the Chianti Rufina territory.

Marchesi Gondi – Tenuta Bossi will be there with its own wines; in particular it will be possible to taste the Chianti Rufina "San Giuliano 2013" and the Rosso Colli Toscana Centrale " Ser Amerigo 2008".

The estate is also taking part in Cantine Aperte during the event, with the following opening times: 3 and 4 June from 10 am to 12 noon and from 4 pm to 6 pm.

You will be able to taste in particular the Ser Amerigo, a feminine, seductive, modern wine made from a blend of international and native varieties: 40% Merlot, 40% Sangiovese and 20% Colorino.

Appearance: lively ruby red with garnet reflections.

Nose: the wine is complex, showing hints of fruit preserve, cinchona and rhubarb, in particular plum and cherry, opening into further notes of undergrowth and tobacco.

Palate: of great personality, with a refined tannic weave and a vivid savouriness that reveals great balance, softened by a generous fruity embrace; the close is balsamic and spicy.

This wine is therefore made of two SOULS: on the nose it shows the sweet, fruity notes typical of Merlot, while on the palate the persistence and strength of Sangiovese emerge, so characteristic of the Chianti Rufina Territory.
