DOMINO IGT TOSCANA
GENIUSLOCI
To emphasize our commitment to tradition and reinforce our vision of production discipline, starting
with the 2007 vintage we have decided to divert Merlot grapes form our Chianti Classico to a new wine,
Domino IGT Toscana.
This wine is a blend of Merlot (80%) and Sangiovese (20%), grown in our Bibbiano vineyards. It comes
in an elegant, black Bordeaux bottle (Bordolese) that conceals a lively, sophisticated, appealing and
powerful personality.
Our heavy and fertile soil and a climate, with a broad temperature range in summer and pleasantly mild
in winter, create an exceptional Merlot, generally harvested in the first days of September.
Sangiovese is harvested according to the ripening time each year.
The Merlot component of Domino is aged in new barriques, while Sangiovese is aged in medium-capacity
oak barrels. Both are left to age for about 12 months. This is followed by at least four months of refining
in bottles.
Domino has a deep, strong ruby red color. Its scent is intense, complex, flowery and very zesty. It has
a strong mouthfeel of ripe undergrowth, a broad and elegant structure, accompanied by sweet tannins
and a long aftertaste.
Domino supports “Operation Smile” humanitarian activities.
