One of Altesino's flagship 'Super Tuscan' blends, Alte d'Altesi combines Cabernet Sauvignon, Sangiovese and Merlot for a powerful yet balanced red. Gently pressed and fermented in steel before aging 12-14 months in medium-toasted Allier barriques, it shows dense dark fruit and a firm structure that pairs well with rich, protein-forward dishes.

Sommelier's Note

Altesino's answer to the Super Tuscan movement — structured enough for Cabernet fans, but with a Sangiovese backbone that keeps it distinctly Tuscan.

New to wine?

A bold, internationally styled red that's a great bridge for Cabernet lovers exploring Tuscany.

Food Pairings

A powerful red suited to roast beef, veal, and poultry in rich sauces — substantial enough to stand up to grilled steak.

When to drink it

Steak dinners, festive gatherings, and pairing with roasted or grilled meats

Terroir & Winemaking

Grapes are soft-pressed and fermented separately in stainless steel, then blended and aged 12-14 months in medium-toasted Allier oak barriques, giving the wine a powerful palate with balanced acidity and tannin.
