Introducing the 2019 Soldera Case Basse Toscana Sangiovese IGT, an exceptional wine that stands among Italy’s finest. Sourced from the extraordinary terroir of Case Basse, this vintage is a testament to the legacy of Gianfranco Soldera, renowned for creating some of the most sought-after wines globally.
Domaine Soldera Case Basse, established in 1972, continues under the meticulous care of Gianfranco’s family, preserving his non-interventionist philosophy. The estate emphasizes organic farming, minimal handling in the cellar, and long aging in casks to produce wines that truly express the unique qualities of Sangiovese and their terroir.
The 2019 vintage, highlighted by its perfect balance and expressive character, showcases the pinnacle of Soldera’s winemaking prowess. This vintage is marked by a cold winter and a balanced summer, with ideal temperature swings fostering healthy growth and perfect ripening.
On the nose, the 2019 Soldera reveals intense aromas of wild berries, earth, and a hint of floral notes. The palate is vibrant, with a seamless blend of acidity and tannins, offering flavors of ripe red fruit, spice, and a touch of minerality. The finish is long, complex, and deeply satisfying.
Antonio Galloni of Vinous praises Soldera’s wines as some of the most compelling and transcendental on the planet, with the 2019 vintage expected to age beautifully over the next decade and beyond. With only a handful of bottles available, this wine truly is a rare gem, reflecting the dedication and passion of the Soldera family.
"As always, these remain some of the most compelling and transcendental wines being made anywhere in the world... Soldera’s Brunellos have the rare ability to captivate all the senses with their profound, riveting beauty."
