The same blend as the Fralibri (40% Corvina Veronese, 20% Corvinone, 25% Rondinella and 15% Croatina, Teroldego, Merlot, Molinara and Oseleta) but matured in large barrels for 18 months. A full, ruby color and an aroma in which the initial scents of sour cherry and cherry preserved in alcohol seem light, rounded and winking before breathing makes the bouquet more complex with notes of spice. The mouthfeel is warm and vigorous, with fine tannins uplifting the roundness and significant softness. A surprising finesse that does not betray the solid structure.
Raffaella did not want to make this wine but the market demanded it. Given Raffaella’s expertise, the result and the decisions she made proved her right.
