來自 Tuscany 的Sangiovese，傳統得來帶點不傳統。Sopralago葡萄園均位面向東/東南方的同一坡地上，日照非常充足，周圍被森林環繞，有效保護牠們免受強風的侵襲。Lago 為意大利文「湖泊」，葡萄園旁有個小湖作調節微氣候，令到Sopralago的微氣候與眾不同。

在葡萄園的背後，森林如同一件斗篷，保護這片嵌在小湖上方的特級葡萄園，能夠展現風土 Terroir 的所有特徵。葡萄酒在木桶中陳釀一年，細膩地織有花香、礦物質和香料的點綴，展現非凡個性。

Fattoria Bonsalto 的 Maurizio 家族釀制葡萄酒超過五十年。很長一段時間採取“散裝”的銷售策略。自2021年以來，他們決定認真對待這一事業，啟動了一個旨在獲得該地區最佳的自家品牌。

這支酒我取名 湖畔重遊，紀錄酒莊重新岀發，重遊舊地，以高質的湖畔田園，釀岀佳品！

A Sangiovese cru to chisel the Bonsalto terroir. A precise point on the map of Tuscan wine. Territory: all the vineyards are located on the same slope facing south, south-east and are surrounded by woods that protect them from the main winds. The microclimate of Bonsalto is therefore distinct and completely peculiar. The soils are clayey, with alluvial river deposits. The skeleton is made up of pebbles and boulder smoothed by the water. The alkaline soils, rather rich in macroelements and poor in nitrogen, are not too productive and guarantee good water reserves even in dry years.

Behind the vineyard, the forest seems like a cloak that protects this "cru", nestled above a small lake. Here there are only Sangiovese plants, the Tuscan variety par excellence, capable of restoring all the character of the terroir. The wine matures for a year in barrel: it is inviting, finely embroidered with floral, mineral and spicy points, while the mouth has great tension, flavor and character.
