A Tribute to Tuscan Craftsmanship
Geografico La Pevera stands as a testimony to the rich Tuscan winemaking heritage while showcasing the embrace of modern techniques. This Super Tuscan red wine, hailing from the revered Geografico winery, is a culmination of decades of dedication, tradition, and meticulous craftsmanship.
Venerated Origins
Founded in 1961 by a passionate group of winemakers, Geografico, now under the renowned Piccini family’s stewardship, has consistently championed quality and innovation. Nestled amidst the picturesque hills of Chianti and Chianti Classico, this winery keenly reflects Tuscany’s vibrant legacy. The name La Pevera, signifying an ancient wooden funnel, echoes the timeless winemaking heritage of the region.
The Super Tuscan Identity
La Pevera is part of the celebrated Toscana IGT appellation, known for breaking traditional DOC/DOCG restrictions by including non-native grape varieties. It’s crafted with a blend of Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Syrah, ensuring a dry, robust yet elegant profile.
Intricate Winemaking Process
Each grape variety is harvested at the perfect ripeness, then separately vinified to preserve their distinct characteristics. After fermentation in stainless steel tanks, the wine undergoes malolactic fermentation in cement vats, followed by a 24-month maturation in French tonneaux. This precise method results in well-integrated tannins, enhanced mouthfeel, and a balance between oak and fruit.
Sensory Experience
Expect a deep ruby hue with purple undertones. The aroma captivates with notes of ripe blackberries, coffee, and subtle oak. On the palate, experience a harmonious blend of berry richness, earthy spiciness, and a hint of vanilla. It concludes with a lingering finish that promises years of enjoyment.
Perfect Pairings
La Pevera’s robust structure complements a range of dishes including aged cheeses, beef, and rich game meats. Whether enjoyed solo or alongside a hearty meal, it offers a gratifying sensory journey.
Decant for Depth
To maximize its aromatic and flavor complexity, it’s advisable to decant the wine approximately an hour before serving. Maintain serving temperatures between 16°C and 20°C to fully appreciate its nuanced profile.
