Organoleptic properties

intense ruby red with purple nuances. The aroma is expressive of the variety, with a distinctive fragrance of forest fruits, plums and wild cherries and a hint of sweet spices, toasted coffee and Mediterranean brush. This wine has a remarkable structure: soft and full-bodied on the palate with a fresh, elegant tannic backbone. 

Description

A careful selection of grapes picked from alberello trained vines with an average age of 30 years. This wine retains the typical concentration of the grape but remains strikingly fresh and pure, making it particularly elegant and suitable for ageing, unusual for the Primitivo variety.
