Noesi
red wine igt costa toscana
Grasping the essence of things
In philosophy, noesis (from the Greek “νόησις”) refers to the act of the intellect, that is, intellectual knowledge. It has been explored by great philosophers, from Plato and Aristotle to Husserl, each with their own nuances of thought. Noesis can therefore be understood as the activity that allows one to grasp the essence of things in an immediate and intuitive way—much like drinking a good glass of this wine, or intuitively perceiving the beauty of a work of art without engaging in logical reasoning that no longer belongs to noetic knowledge. A red wine with violet hues, marked by a vibrant aromatic and gustatory freshness, featuring fruity, spicy and floral notes, especially violet.
