A blend of Corvina, Molinara and Corvinone that ages in barrels of various sizes. The wine has a ruby color that is not excessively bright and a bouquet with intriguing notes of light and dark spices and distinct and austere fruity ones. There are also those of various types of pepper together with a sensation of ash and a strange yet wonderful note of the sea. The mouthfeel is always elegant with a thick texture, slightly young tannins and no tendency towards fattiness, while the acidity adds freshness and excellent drinkability. A salty note stands out Before the finish and there is dark fruit in the after-aroma.
