Sansonina Limited Edition

The Azienda Agricola La Sansonina, located in Peschiera del Garda, represents a point of reference in the Italian wine scene, distinguishing itself for an innovative approach that respects tradition. Born from the desire to dispel a prejudice and demonstrate the potential of an area traditionally suited to white wines, Sansonina has established itself as a producer of high-quality red wines. Founded in the mid-1990s, Sansonina takes its name from Samson, a mythological figure symbolizing strength and determination. This choice is not accidental, as it reflects the company's ambition to produce full-bodied and structured wines, capable of best expressing the Garda terroir. The production philosophy is based on sustainable viticulture and respect for the environment, with the aim of obtaining healthy, high-quality grapes. The Sansonina terroir is characterized by a temperate Mediterranean climate, with mild winters and hot, breezy summers. The soils, of morainic origin, are rich in skeleton and offer excellent drainage, favoring the production of concentrated and aromatic grapes. The Sansonina vineyards are mainly planted with Merlot, a vine that has proven to be particularly suited to the climate and soil of the area. The planting density is high, in order to obtain low yields per vine and to concentrate the aromas and perfumes in the grapes to the maximum. The cultivation practices are strictly organic, with the use of preparations based on natural substances and integrated pest control. The Sansonina winery is an example of modern architecture integrated into the surrounding landscape. Equipped with cutting-edge equipment, the winery allows the grapes to be vinified delicately, preserving their organoleptic characteristics. The vinification takes place in stainless steel, with long macerations and controlled temperatures, in order to best extract the tannins and aromas. The range of wines produced by Sansonina is limited, but of great quality. The flagship wine is certainly the Sansonina, an intense ruby ​​red, with aromas of ripe red fruit, spices and toasted notes. On the palate it is powerful and structured, with velvety tannins and a long and persistent finish. Azienda Agricola La Sansonina represents an example of how passion, expertise and the desire to experiment can lead to the creation of excellent wines. Thanks to its production philosophy and the quality of its products, Sansonina has established itself as one of the most interesting wineries on the Italian scene.

The Sansonina Limited Edition 2017 represents the pinnacle of Merlot expression in the Sansonina estate, the result of a rigorous selection of grapes from the most suitable vineyards. This exceptional vintage, characterized by a wide temperature range and well-distributed rainfall, has given the wine a unique complexity and elegance. The vinification was carried out with the utmost care, favoring traditional techniques and careful control of temperatures. After alcoholic fermentation in wood, the wine was aged for [number] months in French oak barriques, during which it acquired aromatic complexity and structure. Merlot grapes, from vineyards located on the morainic hills of Lake Garda, best express the characteristics of this unique terroir. The soils, rich in limestone and clay, give the wine minerality and depth. This wine has considerable aging potential, thanks to its structure and aromatic complexity. It can be stored in the cellar for several years, evolving into an even more complex and fascinating wine.
