2018 | Duemani | G. Punto

Lots of fresh brambleberries on the nose with freshly turned soil, lavender, herbs and lemon zest. More freshly crushed red and black berries on the palate. Hints of nutmeg and macadamia nuts, too. It’s medium-bodied and elegant with soft, silky tannins and a juicy finish. Lightly salty at the end. New wine from here. Amfora produced.

Reviews:

• Wine Advocate: You don't see much Grenache from mainland Italy or Tuscany. The Duemani 2018 G. Punto is made with organic and biodynamic fruit harvested from a parcel planted in 2014 at a high 350 meters above sea level. Rocky calcareous clay is mixed with some soils of volcano origin. The wine is fermented and aged in Tuscan clay amphorae. This beautiful Grenache is buzzing with energy and electricity that comes from the absolute purity and clarity of the fruit. You taste each little detail with sour cherry, red berry, dried oregano, aniseed and a touch of canned peach. The wine is vertical, straight and lifted in personality. Skin maceration in amphorae (called "orcio" in Italian) lasts up to five months and stems are included. The last three months of aging are spent in barrique because this helps to naturally clarify this essentially non-filtered wine.

Producer Information

Azienda Vitivinicola Duemani is an Italian wine producer located in Riparbella, approximately 40 kilometers (25 miles) southeast of Pisa on the Tuscan coastline. The estate was founded in this coastal area to cultivate Cabernet Franc, Syrah and Merlot grapes.Elena Celli and Luca D'Attoma established Duemani in 2000. Today, the estate extends over 10 hectares (25 acres) of land separated into four vineyards: two dedicated to Cabernet Franc, one to Merlot and one to Syrah. All four vineyards are planted on a single rocky, clay hillside at altitudes of approximately 820ft (250m) above sea level. The vineyards are all coastal-facing and cultivated according to biodynamic agricultural methods.Duemani makes a range of Costa Toscana IGT wines including several varietal red and rosé wines from Cabernet Franc and Syrah, as well as a Cabernet Franc – Merlot red blend. These wines are fermented and macerated in a range of different vessels, from temperature-controlled cement vats to oak barriques. After vinification, the wines are aged in new French oak or cement vats (depending on the wine). All of Duemani's wines are produced without fining or filtration.
