Barco Reale di Carmignano DOC 2025 - Ambra X 6

Characteristics of the Barco Reale di Carmignano DOC 2025 Fattoria Ambra

The Barco Reale di Carmignano 2025 from Fattoria Ambra is a Tuscan red wine that is young, fresh, and extraordinarily pleasant, taking its name from the ancient Medici hunting reserve established in the 17th century. Historically considered the "little brother" of the Carmignano DOCG, this wine shares the same traditional blend—dominantly Sangiovese and enriched with Canaiolo and Cabernet—but stands out for its more agile, immediate, and distinctly fruity stylistic approach, perfect for everyday dining.

In the glass, it presents a bright and clear ruby ​​red color, accompanied by a good consistency. On the nose, it releases an intense and fragrant bouquet, with notes of ripe cherries, black cherries, and small red berries, enriched on the finish by a subtle and refreshing mineral note. On the palate, it reveals a dry wine, characterized by an enveloping warmth and a vibrant freshness that perfectly balances the dynamic body. The tannins are young but already well-polished, guiding the sip towards a clean, harmonious finish with a pleasant fruity persistence.
