"Ameri" 2018 - Governo all'Uso Toscano IGT - Podere San Cristoforo

Ameri has an explosive nose with a ton of essence-like fruit, such as brambleberry pie, blackberry compote, herbal liqueur and resin. Fruity and very overt, but with good firmness to the tannins that helps guide layer upon layer of bold fruit to a chewy finish.

It combines well with tasty dishes, based on red meat and game. We match it often with a nice selection of cured meats or very mature cheeses. It can also be enjoyed on its own to fully appreciate its complexity.

"Ameri" is the result of a very unique method called "governo all'uso toscano" (governance in the Tuscan manner) described in the book "The art of making a perfect and durable wine", 1774. Moreover in this wine we used another quite unusual technique called "taglio del tralcio" that consists in cutting the cane supporting the ripe clusters. By cutting the cane only the sun and the wind are promoting the natural dehydration of the grapes, concentrating sugars, acids, and aromas.
