Made from perfectly ripened grapes in a tiny southfacing vineyard overlooking the natural sulphur spring of Saturnia, fermented in 25 hl vessels with medium maceration. Elevato by 2 months in stainless steel and 12 months in French oak.
The name 'Cottabus' comes from that of an ancient game, the aim being to 'throw' wine from a goblet to land in a receptacle a few metres in front.

Full bodied, round, spicy and extremely elegant wine. Low yield attentively cultivated Cabernet lends a real blackcurrant element to the native Sangiovese base. Complex and lingering.

Dark ruby red, full bodied, matured, Cabernet Sauvignon with Sangiovese and Merlot, ABV 13%, serve 18^oC
