Tasting Notes.
The nose displays nuances of cherry, white flowers; red orange notes appear with a bit of aeration. The palate has a perfect balance, it is creamy and juicy and reveals marked hints of red berries. The finish is savory with a great purity.
Vinification: Manual selection of the grapes first and - after destemming - by optic selector, followed by fermentation with 20% of whole cluster, without the addition of artificial yeast. Maceration is assisted by a falling down system, and everything is carried out inside open cone-shaped and temperature-controlled fermenters for 29 days.
Aging: 30 months in Oak Barrel. 22 months in Bottle
Food Pairing: Pasta and risottos with mushrooms or truffles, pork, grilled meats, and medium aged cheeses. Roasted red meats, beef, and lamb. Game, such as wild boar, guinea fowl, or duck.
