Côte de Beaune

A key wine-producing district of Burgundy in the east of France.

The Côte de Beaune area is the southern part of the Côte d'Or, the limestone ridge that is home to the great names of Burgundy wine. The Côte de Beaune starts between Nuits-Saint-Georges and Beaune, and extends southwards for about 25 km to the river Dheune. The trend of producing red wines continues from the Côte de Nuits to the north, down through Beaune, although the wines become lighter and more perfumed. Farther south lie the great names of white Burgundy such as Meursault and Chassagne-Montrachet.

Product Details

Details of production; 385 IGT Toscana Rosso is the brainchild of the Meregalli and Bianchini families after 15 years of collaboration. The grapes coming from Montalcino and Montecucco display the typical features of the Val d’Orcia, which combined with the Maremma grapes, make the 385 a unique, fresh and fragrant wine. The terroir of the vineyards consists of medium-textured heterogeneous soils, schistose and alluvial clay, rich in stony skeleton and carbonates. Winemaking in red with maceration on the skins. Malolactic fermentation in stainless steel vats to enhance the finesse of the different aromas.

Tasting notes: Deep red, purplish if exposed to light. Very powerful and penetrating, with strong personality. Rich ripe fruit notes, blueberries, blackberries, red berries and lightly toasted spices. The taste is warm and developing, clear hints of vanilla and berries giving a very long and pleasant persistence.
Blend of grapes; 60% Sangiovese, 20% Merlot, 10% Syrah & 10% Ciliegiolo
Excellent with traditional Tuscan cuisine, grilled meat, game. Excellent with fresh and mature cheeses.
