Situated
in a wine growing area,
Massimo Ciarcia’s Winery and Olive Estate
has a cellar where the grapes are worked and in
which, via modern machinery, the wine is bottled
with a part of the production first destined for
aging in oak barriques.
Under
the careful and patient family management, the combination
of rigorous grape selection, modern wine processing
methods, aging and bottling, has proven to result
in the production of intense wines at a high quality
level.
At the top of the list is Poggio
Regio obtained from Sangiovese and
Cabernet Sauvignon grapes, aged in French Oak for a period of
one year. It is a Tuscan Red and has an intense
and persistent flavour with a touch of mature fruit,
vanilla and spices.
Included
in Massimo Ciarcia’s production is another
wine worthy of note, a semibarriccato red, Le
Carraie, resulting from the wine-making
of Sangiovese and Montepulciano grapes.
La
Cappella Red, a traditionally simple
wine, is particularly adapted to accompany local
tuscan cuisine.
The
only white lable produced by the Ciarcia family,
La Cappella White,
is obtained from Trebbiano and Vermentino grapes
which are indicated for seafood and white meat dishes.
