Winemaker notes:

The Tuscan coast of the Val di Cecina is renowned everywhere for its Cabernets, but for ages past, Sangioveto has sovereignly dominated its slopes. Prunicce blends the delicate and fruitful aromas of Sangiovese piccolo with those, more spicy and austere of Cabernet Sauvignon and Franc.

A blend, halfway between tradition and novelty, where plum and red fruit prevail, that easily withstands aging for some years.
