Nose
To the nose, hints of dried fruit, almonds, hazelnuts and apricot. Ethereal aroma.
Palate
The mouth is full with gentle notes of honey and dried fruit. Complex aromatic structure with remarkable persistence.
Growing Conditions
Mild winter, little rain in early spring, wet summer but within the average for the season and without any particular peaks, rainy season in late August and in late September.
Harvest
The last grapes to be harvested were the Sangiovese, which thanks to the considerable differences of temperatures between day and night during September developed exceptional aroma and extractions of colour.
Winemaking
The Malvasia bunches, left to dry until Christmas, were selected with infinite care. This year there is less available than in past years, but the quality will be exceptional.
Aging
4-5 years in oak casks (caratelli).
Appearance
Amber color.
