THU SHA, which means ONE FOUR in the Etruscan language, was born in 2014 near Farnese, in the splendid setting of the Tuscia Viterbese. It is produced from the Sangiovese variety of grapes grown on the rocky volcanic soil, where it develops its strength and minerality.
The wine is ruby red with garnet highlights, and has an intense fruity aroma with notes of wild berries that blend with spices and vanilla. It has an excellent balance of acids and tannins with a pleasing and persistent finish.
