Tasting Notes: Intense ruby red colour. Enveloping fragrance with hints of red fruits, especially wild black cherry, hibiscus and rose supported by balsamic and spicy sensations. The tannins are well balanced with the acidity and structure. The taste is warm, persistent and elegant.

Ageing/Vinification: After a gentle destemming the grapes, lightly pressed, are sent in stainless steel containers where the alcoholic fermentation takes place in a 15-days period, during which the skins are in contact with the must at a temperature of 25°C. After the pressing the wine, placed in oak barrels, undergoes the malolactic fermentation. Here it remains for a further 12-months period of aging plus 10-months refinement in bottle.
