Querciabella Turpino Toscana Rosso IGT 2020
From Querciabella in Alberese, Maremma Toscana, the Turpino 2020 is a refined blend of Cabernet Franc, Syrah, and Merlot from iron-rich silt and alluvial sand soils. Hand-harvested from organic, biodynamic vineyards, it’s fermented in wooden vats and aged 16 months in French oak barriques, offering a dark ruby hue with vibrant complexity.
Tasting Notes
A vibrant, expressive red with rich fruit and spicy finesse, showcasing Maremma’s terroir.
The nose reveals black cherry, plum, and mocha, with hints of tobacco, ebony, and exotic spices. On the palate, it’s full-bodied and balanced, with fine tannins, bright acidity, and flavors of licorice, chocolate, and a savory, mineral finish.
Awards and Accolades
The 2020 Turpino earned 96 points from Vinous for its expressive depth, 95 points from James Suckling for its firm, vibrant profile, and 91 points from CellarTracker for its balanced complexity in the 2020 vintage.
