Pagurus, Sangiovese

Aging in the sea

The bottles are submerged on the seabed of the Adriatic Sea, in the Paguro site of Community importance, at a depth of 30 meters in stainless steel cages. Thanks to the isobaric conditions, the temperature remains constant around 10/13°C, and the emergence occurs after a period of about 12 months, depending on the marine conditions and the season.

Tasting notes

The intense red color, with a touch of garnet, shines with its vivacity, reminding the taster of the pounding heart of a great Sangiovese di Romagna. The expectations are not betrayed on the nose where the small spicy notes are accompanied by a plateau of dried fruits such as plum and date, all in total synergy with the tertiary scents, which flow into the balsamic accompanied by ginger and tamarind. At the sip the drink does not betray: a large, rich and fine volume intersects with a well-defined and spherical tannic texture, almost forged in its elegance during the underwater refining process, by the harmonic currents, which determined its embellishment.
A wine to combine with a structured and lively second course of meat but also with a traditional Romagna risotto. An overwhelming and surprising wine with a great evolution well balanced by the verticality of hardness, the trademark of Tenuta del Paguro's wines in underwater evolution.

Under Water Wines method

Tenuta Del Paguro has chosen the sea as a natural cellar for its wines. At a depth of 30 meters, the constant temperature protects them from thermal shocks, while the water filters the light rays that would damage the precious content. The pressure of the sea, like a delicate stimulus, contributes to creating a perfect harmony, and the slow swaying of the underwater currents gives the wine a rounder and more complex evolution. This is how wines with a unique character are born, intense and persistent, with mineral and savory notes that tell of the marine experience.
