Sequerciani Libello
Organically certified by ICEA and Demeter
A beautiful wine from this amazing tiny natural wine producer! This is one of our biggest selling sulphite free wines.
it has become so popular that we are already on the 2019. Although you can drink it now it'll certainly improve with a few months bottle age as it will settle down and mellow a bit. Right now it's a bit lively, and has a natural rustic feel much like Philippe Virets wines.
80% Sangiovese is blended with 20% Ciliegiolo and both are fermented wih only the grapes' natural yeasts. The wine is left to macerate on the skins for four months in concrete tanks and teracotta amphorae. No sulphites or any other additive is used, nor is anything taken away by fining of filtering - as Sequerciani's tag line states " grapes, sun and earth - that's it"!
The wine is full and silky, with big red fruit flavours with a slightly nutty finish. Very natural in style (obviously) and a long finish. It's fantastic either on it's own or with virtually any Tuscan food - please try a bottle to get our sales up and running and help Sequerciani get their wines to the UK market. They literally make about 10,000 bottles per year in total, all completely by hand of course with real passion and dedication to organic natural production. I predict this wine in particular will be a massive hit for us.
