Castellare di Castellina I Sodi di San Niccolo is an impressive Italian red wine from Tuscany, produced by the renowned Castellare di Castellina winery. It is a so-called Supertuscan, made from the indigenous grape varieties Sangiovese and Malvasia Nero. The name Sodi is derived from a word used by Tuscan farmers to describe soils that are too steep to be worked with machines. So everything is worked by hand. San Niccolo, on the other hand, is the name of a church located on the estate.
The I Sodi di San Niccolo presents itself with a deep red color and an intense bouquet of ripe dark fruits such as cherries, blackcurrants and plums. These aromas are accompanied by notes of spices, cedar wood and tobacco, which give the wine additional complexity. On the palate, I Sodi di San Niccolo is both powerful and elegant. It is full-bodied, with sweet and silky tannins and a balanced acidity that gives the wine a great freshness and makes the taste pleasant and crisp. The wine has a remarkable structure and a long, noble finish.
The I Sodi San Niccolo from Castellare di Castellina was fermented in steel tanks and then matured 2/3 in new barriques and 1/3 in used barriques. After maturing in the bottle for 10 months, it was finally launched on the market.
Castellare di Castellina I Sodi di San Niccolo is an excellent accompaniment to sophisticated dishes. It tastes great with grilled meat, game dishes, mature cheese and hearty pasta dishes.
