Made from Cesanese di Affile grapes and aged for one year in barriques. Cold this year halved yield but the vintage was one of best in the last ten years. The nose is broad, complex and fine and still extremely dynamic and engaging with its notes of humus, tobacco, sweet spice and ripe and enticing fruit. The mouthfeel is balanced and mature, perfectly respondent and surprising. Really good.
