Libertà is a blend of Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Syrah. This wine expresses great balance between the soft tannins of Merlot, the aromatic complexity of Cabernet Franc and elegant spicy Syrah. The name Libertà derives from a gift that the city of Florence made to eight Florentine families including the then owners of Collazzi who fought valorously to free the city.

    Vintage Description:

    Aromas of French oak, cedar and black-skinned berry. Lithe and linear, the medium-bodied palate offers cassis, blackberry, coffee bean and ground clove alongside taut, fine-grained tannins. (Kerin O'Keefe - Wine Enthusiast, 1st May 2022)

    Libertà

    wine description:

    With the 2008 harvest, "Libertà", Collazzi's second wine, was also produced. Libertà is a persuasive red, with grapes harvested from the youngest vineyards that embrace the splendid estate. The words "Freedom" were inserted in 1376 in the coat of arms of the family that owned Collazzi at the time, for having fought valiantly for the freedom of the city of Florence from the invader.
