With the song "Message In A Bottle", The Police achieved a number 1 hit in the UK, Ireland and Spain in 1979. The song, written by Sting, is about a person who is - figuratively speaking - stranded on an island and sends a message in a bottle in search of love. Certain values such as togetherness, affection and the bond between people can be seen as the message of the song. An evening of wine with friends can emphasise this message. Especially with the red wine from Stingsweingut - Tenuta Il Palagio - from Tuscany. The harmonious red wine called MESSAGE IN A BOTTLE made from Sangiovese impresses with a bouquet of sour cherries and a little redcurrant. On the
spicy flavours and the typical Palagio juiciness on the palate
Il Palagio is located above the picturesque Tuscan town of Figline Valdarno, in the triangle between Florence, Siena and Arezzo. When Sting and his wife acquired the property in 1998, it was in danger of falling into disrepair. The villa, its guest houses, vineyards and olive groves have been lovingly restored by Sting and Trudie. Viticulture has a long tradition at Il Palagio. Viticulture has been practised there since the mid-16th century and has been revitalised by Sting and Trudie's love of 'winemaking'. With wine experts such as Alan York, the biodynamic pope from California, who laid the foundations for biodynamic cultivation immediately after the takeover, Riccardo Coltarella has now been responsible for the wines since 2020.
