TASTING NOTES
Intense and vivid ruby red with evident garnet reflections. As this wine is made using selected grapes from vines of different ages, both nose and palate are distinguished by an elegant robustness. At first impact, it is immediately imposing, refined and intense, fruity and spiced, with notes of blackcurrant, cherry, balsamic wood, leather and liquorice, closing with a smoky note. The palate is rounded and considerably complex, with tannins conferring a decisive character without, however, impairing smoothness and balance. The very long and richly flavoured finish is remarkable.
PAIRING SUGGESTION
A distinguished red to accompany decisively flavoured dishes: excellent as an accompaniment for kebabs, rich red meats, game, roasts and mature cheeses.
