Fresh, high-altitude premium natural Umbrian Sangiovese
Sangiovese (’Parte Alte’, 60 year old vines, 320m above sea level, fiberglass aging)
Umbria, Magione, ITALY
The Gimo Sangiovese is Della Staffa's fresher, more vibrant expression of this noble Italian grape. Sourced from the estate's high-altitude Parte Alte vineyard at 320 meters above sea level, this wine captures the energy and purity of Umbrian mountain viticulture.
Winemaker Danilo Marcucci works with organic, chemical-free vines that have been left to thrive naturally for decades. The cooler temperatures and higher elevation of the Parte Alte site produce Sangiovese with brighter acidity, refined tannins, and lifted aromatics. After fermentation, the wine rests in fiberglass vessels, preserving its natural vibrancy without oak influence.
The result is a juicy, food-friendly Sangiovese bursting with red cherry, cranberry, and wild strawberry, accented by hints of violet, Mediterranean herbs, and earthy minerality. The texture is medium-bodied with a silky mouthfeel and a refreshing, moreish finish.
This is Sangiovese in its most approachable form: natural, honest, and delicious. Perfect for everyday drinking yet complex enough to engage serious wine lovers.
Serve lightly chilled (around 16°C) with tomato-based pasta, margherita pizza, prosciutto and melon, or simply enjoy on its own as an aperitivo. A wine that captures the soulful simplicity of Italian Rustic life.
