What kind of wine is Maremma Toscana Rosso DOC 'Bramaluce' 2023 - Terenzi

The Maremma Toscana Rosso DOC 'Bramaluce' 2023 - Terenzi is a red wine that embodies the most authentic soul of the Tuscan Coast, combining elegance and conviviality. It is born from a skillful blend of Sangiovese and Syrah, two grape varieties that together express a perfect balance between structure and softness. The result is a medium-bodied red, fragrant and harmonious, that naturally accompanies every table occasion.

Vintage Details

The 2023 vintage was characterized by a regular season, with a balanced spring and a warm but ventilated summer, capable of keeping the grapes healthy and well-ripened. The harvest, which took place between late September and early October, allowed for the selection of bunches with perfect phenolic ripeness — that is, a good balance between sugars, acids, and tannins — ensuring clear aromas and a well-defined taste profile.

Vinification and aging

A portion of the grapes is left to wither on racks for about 15 days, a technique that naturally concentrates sugars and aromas, giving roundness and warmth to the wine. After blending, the must ferments at controlled temperatures and rests in steel tanks, where it ages to maintain freshness and aromatic richness. This is followed by a six-month rest in the bottle, which further rounds out the wine's aromas and texture.
