Composed of 40% Sagrantino, 40% Sangiovese, and 20% Montepulciano, San Valentino comes partly from young vines which Bea sees as not quite ready for prime time in a cru bottling, and partly from 40- to 50-year-old vines from parcels not destined for inclusion in the crus. Fermented and aged two years in steel, then transferred to large Slavonian casks for two additional years, this 2019 shows fantastic balance between freshness, wildness, and concentration; it is a wonderful encapsulation of Bea’s unduplicable style.
