Description
Country: Italy
Region: Tuscany
Sub-Region: Maremma
Grape Varietal: Red Italian Blend
Type: Still wine
Classification: Igp
This distinctive wine, made in a region famous for Super-Tuscan blends with Bordeaux varieties, looks not to the Medoc, but to the Mediterranean. Indigenous Sangiovese is blended with Syrah, Alicante, and Carignan, creating a ”Super-Med” blend that brings together these noble grapes and highlights the heritage of Mediterranean winemaking. The name ”Aragone” refers to the Aragons of Spain, who together with the Medici family of Florence, dominated the region of Maremma in the 1500’s. The six-point star depicted on the label, represents an aerial view of ”Forte Stella,” which is located in Porto Ercole just south of Grossetto, built by the Spanish around 1550.
