WINE MAKING PROCESS
The production of Leale Toscana Sangiovese Rosato involves direct pressing of the Sangiovese grapes, followed by a brief period of skin contact to achieve its pale pink hue. The resulting must is then fermented in stainless steel tanks. This technique is employed to retain the wine's fresh fruit aromas and crisp acidity. The wine is not aged in oak, further emphasizing its bright and clean profile.
