Nose
Refined, subtly spicy nose opening to ripe black fruit and herbs.
Palate
Medium body, vibrant tannins, and a fresh finish.
Harvest
By hand, at the beginning of October.
Winemaking
The Riserva journey starts in the vineyard: the best grapes come from deeply rooted plants that struggle to get water and nutrients from the sun-scorched soil. The wine is then aged in large old oak barrels (botti) gaining its unique and memorable flavour. Authentic, elegant, and amazingly food-friendly, Aiola Riserva is a true expression of the Tuscan hills and winding hills.
Aging
24 months in oak barrels followed by 6 months in bottles.
Appearance
Intense ruby red.
