The soil where this vine is found is composed of clayey and limestone marls with South / East exposure.
The company begins harvesting the grapes from early November and, after pressing, the must ferments in contact with the skins for about 25 days. Malolactic fermentation and subsequent aging in barrique for 12 months and 12 in Slavonian oak barrels follows. The bottle is refined for another 18 months.
In the glass this wine has an intense ruby red color. The nose is intoxicated by its ample bouquet of black cherry, plum, spices, tobacco and balsamic notes. On the palate it is decisive, warm, rich and rightly tannic. The finish is long and persistent with an aroma reminiscent of ripe fruit. On the table it is excellent in combination with first courses with meat sauce, roasted red meats and aged cheeses.
A quality red to taste and savor in good company.
