Another incredible wine from Fabbrica di San Martino situated in Lucca, a beautiful medieval city located in northwest Tuscany. The ancient walls surrounding it dating back to the early 16th century. They practice biodynamic agriculture which goal is to restore plants and soil to a balance closely tied to nature. Sky and earth are closely intertwined connections that must be preserved by minimizing external intervention and promoting biodiversity on the farm itself. This type of agriculture, unlike intensive industrial farming, focuses not only on production but also on preserving the vitality and productivity of the soil.
This is a light to medium-bodied unique red blend of local native grapes with evolving aromas of plum, violet, blackberry and a bit of smokiness. The palate is dry, with mild acidity, soft tannins and flavours of black cherry, blackcurrant, and a surprising spices and mocha notes at the finish. A wine that drinks easy and very well.
The name comes from the old farmer who worked the land. His name was Mario and he would say that the end of the farm was Arcipressi, ‘two cypress trees’.
Pair it with mushroom pizza, roasted pork belly, tomato-based dishes and Italian charcuterie board.
Region: Tuscany, Italy
Grape: Field Blend of over a dozen native varieties, red and white, (including grapes like Colorino, Canaiolo, Malvasia Nera, Aleatico, Sangiovese and more).
Vintage: 2023
