TECHNICAL SHEET
The grapes ferment on the skins for 15-18 days at 25°-28° C. obtaining an excellent extraction of anthocyanins and tannins. The second fermentation takes place in stainless steel and ageing in roasted French oak barrels of 225 liters for 12 months. The wine rests for 3 months in the bottle.
TASTING NOTE
Bright intense ruby red that darkens into garnet after time. Full persistent aroma with over-ripe tones of Marasca cherry on a lovely cascade of vanilla and floral violet hints. Dry, harmonic velvety smoothness of tannins, notes of pepper and dark chocolate.
SERVING SUGGESTIONS
Sublime with red meats, roasts and ripe cheeses. So structured and aromatic, this wine can be drunk on its own.
