Peregrinus is La Cignozza's IGT super-Tuscan-style Sangiovese — outside the DOCG rulebook, so the family can chase depth and modern polish. 100% Sangiovese, longer maceration, more concentrated than the Chianti bottlings.

Mood: Polished, modern, bigger.

Our sommelier says
When customers ask for an upgrade past the Chianti Riserva, this is the bottle. Same family, same vineyards, more freedom in the winery. Plays well with serious meat dishes and short cellar time.

Tasting notes

Black cherry, ripe plum, mocha, dried herbs, a wisp of cedar. Concentrated and modern — full-bodied, plush mid-palate, fine-grained tannins. Polished, long, with dark cherry and spice carrying through.

Food pairing

Grilled ribeye, wild mushroom risotto, lamb shoulder, hard aged Italian cheeses, slow-cooked short ribs.
