This wine is mostly made with Sangiovese and Merlot grape. A little part of Alicante completes the blend. Between the Sangiovese and the Merlot vineyards there’s a little chapel dedicated to the Holy Mary (Madonna delle Grazie). That’s why we named this wine “Campo delle Grazie“: Field dedicated to Madonna delle Grazie.
Fine aromatic bouquet and an ample, well-balanced taste. The international grape conveys an elegant and modern style to our Sangiovese.
