2000: a balanced and regular year.
A blend of 60% Corvina, 15% Corvinone and 15% Rondinella with the remaining 10% composed of varietals allowed by production regulations. The wine matures in barriques and then ages long in the bottle. A red-brick color with a garnet edge. The aroma has immediate notes of caramel, sweet cocoa and medicinal herbs that shift towards dates. This year as well has notes of kumquat in the mouthfeel that is overall elegant with a pleasing sensation thanks to a freshness that is still lively and persistent.
