Descrizione

This wine has an intense ruby red colour, embellished with suggestive violet reflections. A true feast for the eyes that heralds an extraordinary experience.

As for the scent, it offers a compelling bouquet, with aromas of wild strawberries, blackberry, raspberry, black pepper and eucalyptus.

Upon tasting we find a balance between freshness and a well-defined tannic texture. The persistence is long, with a reverberation of spices and red fruits that embraces the palate gracefully.

This Negroamaro is the ideal companion for roast or stewed meats, game and mature hard cheeses.
