Nose
Alluring aromas of violet, cherry and berries, combined with pleasant spicy notes.
Palate
Round and velvety. Very elegant and supported by thick and smooth tannins. Persistent and intense on the finish.
Growing Conditions
Grown in Casi on arenaria, clay and galestro soils.
Winemaking
After spontaneous alcoholic fermentation in wood, a period of maceration on the skins follows with malolactic fermentation taking place in cement tanks.
Aging
50% of the wine ages for 18 months in Slavonian oak barrels while the other 50% ages in barriques of second and third usage.
Appearance
Ruby red with increasing garnet hues due to ageing.
Food Pairing
Perfect with first courses of ragu and wild game. Excellent paired with aged cheeses such as pecorino.
