Made from Barbera grapes and matured for 15 months in barriques, 1/3 new wood. An almost dense, ruby-purple color and a slightly woody attack that does not overshadow the intense and distinct aroma of red fruit that is refreshed by a very pleasing note of blood orange. The mouthfeel is rich, flavorful and wrapping with an excellent progression and a long and saline finish. Truly excellent.
