Traits

Spicy sensations where licorice and chocolate are the stronger. Tannins are strong and wrinkly at the beginning, but they are able to find a good evolution and balance relatively fast during aging in small wood first and later in bottle. I’s a wine with a strong personality, mainly evident in the fineness, elegance, spicy touch: all those traits are due to a light but reach terroir with a perfect exposition.

Perfect with elegant and reach meet plates, braised and game, aged cheese. Anyway, is a versatile with that due to it’s discrete elegance could be perfect in any occasion.
