A blend of 80% Tintore and 20% Piedirosso grapes from 18 tiny vineyards where the vines are ungrafted and raggiera and pergola Tramontina-trained. The wine ages for at least 24 months in Slavonian oak barrels and barriques and has a dark, ruby color with a garnet edge. The broad and complex aroma has notes of spice, humus, black pepper, myrtle and graphite. The attack has a nice progression with thick and soft tannins and the mouthfeel is flavorful with a lovely acidity. This, together with a profound finish, makes it a very refined wine.
