An organic blend of 40% Petit Verdot, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon and 20% Cabernet Franc, the Brancaia 2020 Ilatraia (in the bottle with the black label) shows an inky dark appearance with lots of black and purple fruit intensity. This beautiful estate is nestled within the thick forests of Radda in Chianti, one of the wildest corners of the appellation. This vintage is slightly more accessible in terms of mouthfeel, but it still delivers ample spice, grilled herb and black pepper.
Saturated with black currant, blackberry, plum, chocolate and dark spices, this red is also dense with gravelly tannins. Features flashes of medicinal herbs as this plays out on the long finish. Petit Verdot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc.
ILATRAIA is a modern and terroir-typical blend of 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Petit Verdot and 20% Cabernet Franc. A full-bodied wine with freshness, definition and elegance. Intense aromas of black fruit. A firm and silky wine with fine tannins and a luscious finish.
Brancaia's organic and creative approach to winemaking is a gift that keeps on giving and the Ilatraia is sumptuous testament to that fact. Named after a hillside on the estate's Maremma vineyard, Ilatraia is a fruit-forward and distinctively rich blend of Bordeaux grapes Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, and Cabernet Franc. The grapes are organically harvested on the family estate's Maremma vineyards which benefit greatly from a Mediterranean climate and cool sea winds. Brancaia is widely credited for evolving the modern Super Tuscan style and with the opulent barrel aged Ilatraia blend teeming with black fruit, spice and soft tannins, the decorated estate has gone above and beyond.
