Made from Tazzelenghe grapes that have dried on racks for 30 days. The wine matures in 5hl Slovenian oak barrels and in both new and used barriques for around 30 months. A distinct and lively ruby color with a few garnet reflections all wonderfully maintained. The bouquet is very lovely with scents of cut grass, dew, damp tobacco and cherries wrapped in a smoked note. The mouthfeel is lively and full-bodied with earthy tannins that are not rustic and a flavorful finish with notes of wild berries and graphite. Truly very long. Exquisite.
