The Il Borro estate is located about 45 minutes south of Florence within the Valdarno Valley of Tuscany (Valdarno di Sopra D.O.C). Ferruccio Ferragamo, aided by his son Salvatore Ferragamo purchased the estate and have begun extensive restoration and refurbishment of this ancient place. All the wines produced on the Il Borro estate are now exclusively made with certified organically grown grapes.
The “Pian di Nova” wine is obtained by pressing 75% Syrah and 25% Sangiovese grapes. The wine ages 12 months in used French oak barrels. In the glass, it has an intense ruby red color. On the nose, the bouquet is decisive with floral notes and hints of red berry fruit and a spicy aftertaste. The taste is soft and enveloping and the ever present tannins are never invasive. It has a good acidity which makes it pleasant to drink. All the components of Pian di Nova have a good balance which make it a versatile wine that one never tires of drinking.
This wine is perfectly paired with traditional Tuscan dishes with meats but is also excellent with bread-based or vegetable soups. It can also be served to accompany aged or blue-veined cheeses.
