"The 2009 Carmignano Il Sasso is striking. Freshly cut flowers, red berries, spices and mint are all woven together nicely in this vibrant, perfumed Carmignano. Layers of fruit build to an intense, mineral-laced finish. Il Sasso is mostly Sangiovese, with some Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2019."

 Piaggia is located right in the heart of Carmignano, a commune of 12,000 inhabitants in the province of Prato, part of the Italian region of Tuscany. It is located about 12 miles west of Florence. The total vineyard area is approximately 15 hectares (37 acres), divided between the area of S. Cristina a Mezzana and the municipality of Poggio a Caiano, both areas with a great potential for top quality wines. Mauro Vannucci started this winery in 1990 because of his great passion for great red wines, with the aim to produce some of the best wines in the Carmignano appellation. Since that time he has been joined in this venture by his daughter Silvia who is now a co-owner. In its almost 20 years of existence, Piaggia has managed to solidly establish its place among the great wineries of the classic Tuscan DOC of Carmignano, being called by Gambero Rosso "one of the best wineries in the region of Carmignano, rather, in Tuscany." Piaggia is a practicing organic winery. Integrated insect and disease control is followed. Organic fertilizers, copper and sulphur-based products are mainly used, but the vineyards see no insecticides or herbicides. The soil between the rows of vines is tilled. Today's feature, the Il Sasso, is comprised of Sangiovese - 70%, Cabernet Sauvignon - 20% and Merlot - 10%. It is made from grapes grown in the winery's vineyard of the same name (pictured here), located in one of the most interesting areas of the appellation, S. Cristina a Mezzana. After fermentation the wine is aged in French-oak barriques for 12 months and cellared in the bottle for 6 months before release.
