About this wine

La Valletta sits in Panzano, inside the Conca d'Oro, a valley shaped like a golden shell. The Swiss Bär-Bettschart family, who run Gagliole, bought it in 2011. This blend of Sangiovese and Merlot carries the name of that place.

Pour a glass and you'll see an intense ruby red. Lean in and the nose gives you ripe black fruit, licorice, warm spices and a touch of tobacco. Then it turns silky and dense on the tongue, with coffee and dark chocolate that stay on after you swallow.

Serve it at 16-18°C with a Bistecca alla Fiorentina (Grilled Steak), braised beef or aged Parmesan. Open it when the table is full and nobody is in a hurry.
