From Vine to Wine: The Story of our Harvest Season

FROM VINE TO WINE:THE STORY OF OUR HARVEST SEASON

Anticipation in the Air: The Prelude to Harvest

As the warm days of summer slowly yield to cooler September breezes, our vineyard begins its gentle transformation. The grapes—Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah and Merlot—ripen in harmony with the sun, soil, and sea breeze of the Maremma. Daily tastings in the vineyard help us monitor sugar levels, acidity, and ripeness. Timing is everything: pick too early, and the wine lacks depth; too late, and the freshness is lost.

Our winemaker and vineyard team walk the rows with trained eyes and experienced hands, sensing when the moment is just right. It’s a blend of science and intuition that only years of working with the land can bring.

Crushing, Fermentation, and the First Aromas

From the vineyard, the grapes move quickly into the cantina, where the transformation begins. They’re sorted once more, de-stemmed, and gently crushed. Fermentation tanks fill with must and skins as the natural yeasts begin their work, and the cellar begins to take on the sweet, earthy aroma of young wine.

Temperature, timing, and regular tastings are key during this stage. The winemaker’s role is both technical and artistic—guiding the wine as it evolves into something complex and beautiful.

Whether you’re hosting a seaside lunch or a countryside dinner, we’ve curated the perfect summer pairings featuring our elegant rosé wine, organic olive oil, pinot grigio and a selection of fresh dishes that celebrate Mediterranean flavors.

There’s something truly irresistible about the delicate blush hue and refreshing crispness of a chilled rosé on a warm summer day. Whether you’re lounging poolside, enjoying a garden picnic, or hosting a light alfresco lunch, rosé wine is your ultimate seasonal companion. Our Conti di San Bonifacio Rosé is the embodiment of summer elegance, with its aromatic blend of wild strawberries, citrus peel, and subtle herbal notes that evoke Mediterranean breezes. This versatile wine pairs beautifully with a wide range of summer dishes, making it the ideal bottle to have on hand all season long.

 Shop Our Rosé Here and experience the refreshing charm of Tuscan winemaking.

Antipasti Pairings: Fresh, Light & Elegant

Elevate your summer dining with antipasti pairings designed to complement the bright, mineral-driven profile of our rosé. These starters bring out the best in our wine, emphasizing freshness and seasonal flavor:

  • Salmon or Tuna Tartare – A refined appetizer where the rosé’s vibrant acidity balances the rich texture of raw fish, while enhancing its natural flavors. Add a squeeze of lemon and a touch of sea salt for the perfect bite.

  • Ceviche with Citrus & Herbs – Bursting with lime juice, coriander, and thinly sliced chili, this dish mirrors the wine’s zesty citrus notes and livens up any summer table.

  • Hummus & Grilled Vegetables – A vegetarian favorite featuring creamy chickpeas and smoky, seasonal vegetables, best enjoyed drizzled with our Conti di San Bonifacio Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil for a Mediterranean touch.

Order Our Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil to bring authentic Tuscan flavor to your table.

Primo: Pasta & Risotto with Coastal Flair

For your first course, opt for seafood-inspired pasta and risotto dishes that reflect the maritime essence and floral notes of our rosé. These coastal flavors and delicate preparations create a harmonious pairing:

  • Linguine ai Frutti di Mare – A seaside classic made with clams, mussels, shrimp, and garlic in a light white wine sauce. The gentle brininess of the seafood enhances the rosé’s mineral edge, making every forkful a pleasure.

  • Risotto alla Pescatora – Creamy arborio rice slowly cooked with seafood stock and a mix of fresh shellfish, finished with a swirl of butter and a drizzle of our EVOO. The dish’s richness is beautifully balanced by the crisp, floral finish of the rosé.

Perfect for intimate dinners or festive gatherings, these primi piatti highlight the versatility and elegance of Conti di San Bonifacio Rosé.
