The soil is mainly clayey, which in virtue of the mild climate, can contribute to creating wines with considerable structure, very suitable for long ageing. The bush-trained Klanis vineyard, which represents the excellence of the Estate, is located on the hilltop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis blend is 40% Syrah, 40% Sangiovese and 10% Vermentino.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe most common grape variety on the estate is Syrah, which is well suited to the microclimate of Cortona: hot summers and significant temperature differences between day and night. Other varieties are also cultivated on the estate, such as the indigenous Sangiovese, Vermentino, Chardonnay, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe first vintage was produced in 2019, after a careful study of rosés and Cortona's potential for producing this type.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA pale pink in appearance, the wine opens to striking notes of crisp berry, such as wild strawberry and redcurrant. It adds notes of citrus and grapefruit on a full-volumed, delicious palate, with a foil of crisp acidity and an earthy minerality, progressing into a long-lived finish. Overall, Miralý is an elegant yet intriguing rosé.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMiralý is the perfect partner to crisp, summertime fare such as salads, cheeses, and vegetarian pastas and cold rice dishes. It is equally delicious with fish and shellfish, with stuffed or baked pastas in a tomato sauce.
