Aia Vecchia Lagone Toscana Rosso is a testament to the elegance and finesse of Tuscan winemaking.
Boasting a deep ruby color with purple nuances, this flagship wine from Aia Vecchia exudes delicate aromas of cherry and vanilla, enriched with a whisper of herbs. Its palate is a harmonious blend of flavors - plum, ripe cherries, and wild berries, beautifully intertwined with a touch of spice.
The finish is lengthy and smooth, leaving a memorable impression. Crafted from a blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cabernet Franc, Lagone is a shining example of a 'Super Tuscan' wine, made from international varieties in a region famous for such creations.
Conceived in 1998 by the renowned winemaker Tibor Gal, who joined Aia Vecchia after his tenure at Ornellaia, Lagone derives its name from the creek meandering between the vineyard and the villa.
Awarded 92 points by James Suckling, this wine encapsulates Aia Vecchia's philosophy of achieving the highest quality at a reasonable price. Its bouquet of Mediterranean wood and vanilla, layered over deep red fruits and red cherries with a hint of spice, makes it an elegant and balanced choice, perfect for those who appreciate the subtle artistry of Tuscan wines.
