Nose
Lush cherry and berries with a hint of noble leather.
Palate
Concentrated, savory and powerful. Balanced and juicy. A cascade of super-ripe black cherry, plum, leather, licorice, smoke, tobacco and wild herbs. The typical Sangiovese character best-exhibited.
Winemaking
Maceration, alcoholic and malolactic fermentation in stainless steel. Spontaneous natural alcoholic fermentation with indigenous yeasts.
Aging
24 months in french oak tonneaux and subsequently 12 months bottle ageing. The longer aging helps the wine to gain structure and longevity.
Appearance
Bright ruby red.
Food Pairing
