Sometimes, the most compelling wines come from the most humble philosophies. "Piccolo Goccio" translates to "Little Drop," a name that perfectly encapsulates the artisanal, boutique approach behind this wine. In a world where Sangiovese is often blended, heavily oaked, or polished to meet international tastes, this project is a refreshing return to the grape's unadulterated, rustic roots in central Italy. This wine is a tribute to the rolling, sun-drenched hills of Tuscany, where Sangiovese has thrived for centuries. By sourcing fruit from small, dedicated plots and utilizing a gentle, low-intervention approach in the cellar (often leaning entirely on stainless steel or neutral vessels), the winemaking steps out of the way to let the raw terroir speak. The result is a wine that captures the nervous, joyful energy of Sangiovese. It pours a brilliant, translucent ruby, offering immediate aromatics of crunchy red cherries, wild strawberry, and a savory hint of wild thyme. It is light on its feet, with that signature mouth-watering acidity and a dusty, earthy finish. It’s an honest, "glou-glou" style of Sangiovese that demands a spot on your picnic blanket alongside hard pecorino cheese and finocchiona salami.

Notes

The 2024 Piccolo Goccio Sangiovese (Toscana IGT) is a wonderfully transparent, high-toned, and unadorned expression of the variety, custom-made for importer Oliver McCrum. Sourced from a certified organic estate vineyard planted in 2003 near the noble terroir of Montalcino, this "little sip" project strips away the makeup of commercial luxury to focus entirely on raw varietal energy, eco-conscious lightweight packaging, and high daily drinkability. To protect its primary snap, the hand-harvested fruit (picked in early September from northern-facing, sandy-silt slopes) undergoes a native-yeast fermentation with 10% to 15% whole clusters and a short 10-day maceration on the skins. It is raised entirely in stainless steel tanks—six months on the gross lees followed by four months on the fine lees—before being bottled unfined and unfiltered with zero oak influence.
