This refined wine is the result of a limited production that reflects the commitment and passion of the Podere Forte winery for excellence and sustainability.
Cultivated on particularly favorable soils that benefit from an ideal microclimate, Petrucci Anfiteatro best expresses the qualities of the territory.

Visually, it presents an intense ruby red color, turning to garnet with aging. The nose offers a complex and rich bouquet, with notes of ripe red fruits, spices, and a slight hint of vanilla and leather, derived from wood aging. On the palate, the Petrucci Anfiteatro DOC is full and robust, with an excellent tannic structure that promises excellent longevity. The balance between acidity and tannins is masterful, culminating in a persistent and harmonious finish.
This wine pairs beautifully with Tuscan cuisine dishes, such as roast red meats, game, and aged cheeses. Also ideal as a meditation wine, the Petrucci Anfiteatro DOC Orcia is an excellent example of how the territory and care in production can converge into a high-quality product, capable of telling stories of land and tradition through every sip.
