Produced with carefully selected Sangiovese grapes, with the addition of small quantities of Alicante, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes.
The grapes are pressed separately and are let macerate for a period of 21 to 28 days, according to the variety. After mixing the varieties the wine is aged for 14 months in small French oak barrels called carati. During this period the malolactic fermentation takes place and the wine is decanted frequently. Before being released it is aged six more months in the bottle.
Il Tempio is a wine which does not undergo any stabilization or clarification process, in order to maintain the character and flavor of the product intact.
Perfect to pair traditional Tuscan recipes, in particular game based dishes and aged cheese. |

| Comments: |
The grapes used to make the Morellino di Scansano "Fontetinta" are picked by hand and the juice undergoes alcoholic fermentation in iron vats. The maceration lasts 20 days with frequent daily remixing. The wine is then aged for six months in French barriques, where it undergoes the malolactic fermentation. The wine is released after an extra three months' rest in the bottles.
The color is bright ruby red, to the nose it reveals the strong scent of fruits, with notes of vanilla and spices. In the mouth it is balanced, with good tannic structure, but with sweet, harmonic notes to the palate. Ideal with red meat dishes, pasta and savory recipes. |

The Vermentino grapes used to make this wine are picked in the cool morning hours. After pressing, the must is slightly clarified, then left to ferment in iron vats, where it is refined for five more months before being bottled.
In addition to making a good aperitif wine, the Bianco D'Elisa pairs well seafood and shellfish and vegetarian dishes, as well as soups.
