'Le Trame' Le Boncie 2023
Winegrower's wines"Le Trame" from the Le Boncie winery is a pure Sangiovese of breed and class capable of giving emotions so strong that they create dependence while maintaining an elegant and refined profile. The fermentations that lead to the creation of this red wine are all spontaneous, and the aging takes place in large oak barrels. The color is intense ruby red, but what strikes is the nose, where notes of blueberries, leather, rocky and earthy sensations are released, creating a rich bouquet. The taste is decisive, full, mineral, juicy, lively, and with an excellent aromatic persistence finish.
Le Trame di Le Boncie is an elegant, earthy, and unmistakable Sangiovese. It is born from the hands of the now legendary Giovanna Morganti in San Felice, in the heart of Castelnuovo Berardenga. Giovanna, a daughter of the arts, grows up amidst the warmth of fermentation and the humidity of the cellar, working in various Tuscan wine estates until she inherits the estate from her father in 1983. Already in 2011, when Le Trame was not accepted by the commission, it exited the Chianti Doc denomination and gave rise to an expression in a stubborn and contrary direction of its territory.
This Sangiovese is the cult wine of the Le Boncie winery. The 4 hectares of vineyards are entirely cultivated in the alberello style, which for Giovanna represents the most humble and dignified form for the vine: it withstands the heat better, protects clusters and birds, and cannot stand being in a row, absolutely untameable, as she herself defines it. Their round shape offers a suggestive spectacle among the Chianti hills. A non-intrusive policy has always been followed in the vineyard and in the cellar, where the cornerstone is spontaneous fermentation and the integrity of the grape. The aging takes place in large oak barrels and lasts for at least 13 months.
The wine Le Trame produced by Le Boncie continues to amaze between nose and mouth, releasing vibrant and earthy sensations, with complex notes ranging from blueberry to leather. On the palate, it remains material, lively, and present. It is easily recognizable and possesses a great ability to energetically tell the story of its territory. It speaks in tight Tuscan and easily befriends fresh pasta with meat sauces or with wild boar stew.
