Terre di Casole DOC
Come si dice? Tap the speaker next to a name to hear it in Italian. AI voice.
No strip issued. I'm still hunting a bottle.
A one-commune DOC pushed through by a handful of estates in the Elsa valley that wanted their own name rather than Chianti Colli Senesi. Sangiovese-led reds with cherry, dried herbs, tobacco and firm acidity, sometimes rounded out with Cabernet or Merlot; the whites and the sweet Passito are rarities. Total production is tiny and the wines are sold at the cellar door and in Sienese restaurants.
Still hunting
I'm still looking for a bottle of this.
If you make Terre di Casole, import it, or know who does, the form takes two minutes and I reply to every one.
Can you help me get one?Bottles I'm chasing
