With 100% Centesimino grapes in Brisighella, in the province of Ravenna, Colchico is born.

The vineyards are grown on clayey soil with permanent grassing, exposed to the South-West at 120 - 150 meters above sea level, and trained with the spurred cordon system. The harvest is done manually between 15-20 September, followed by vinification with 20/25 days of maceration; in the first 5 days, 4 pumping overs are carried out per day. The wine rests for 6 months in a vitrified cement tank.

Ruby red in colour. Typical olfactory hints of the vine arrive on the nose, with floral, spicy and fruity aromatic hints; of violet, ground pepper and wild strawberries. The taste opens with a fruity and aromatic fragrance well balanced by the refreshing acidity. A slight tannic component with a long and pleasant aftertaste.

It goes perfectly with meat sauce, baked or grilled meats, excellent with knife-edged beef tartare.
