MANDRONE DI LOHSA
Maremma toscana cabernet – Doc
Powerful and elegant at the same time, soft but structured, Mandrone di Lohsa is a wine obtained mainly from Cabernet Sauvignon, but with small yet decisive additions of Petit Verdot and Carignano. These varietals are essential to give the Mandrone its distinctly Mediterranean character of sun and spice which makes it unique and recognizable.
