Made from Brunello grapes, matured in 900l barrels for 24 months. A very intense and intact ruby color. The intriguing bouquet is very classic with red fruit, mostly cherry, and a touch of other dark fruits and a balsamic salinity of eucalyptus that expands the aromatic spectrum. The mouthfeel is compact yet mellow without any excesses but with great balances and refined tannins. The finish is anthological, incredibly distinct and destined to get better over the years.
The vineyards are in the northern zone where the soil is red yet the heart of this wine is warm and its class immense.
