Surface: approx. 1 hectare

Harvest: manual in baskets with selection of bunches around mid-October.

Vinification: selection of the grapes on a vibrating table, soft pressing, fermentation in steel tanks at a controlled temperature with frequent pumping over and délestages. Maceration for approximately 20 days.

Aging: at least 40 months in traditional oak barrels and subsequently in the bottle in the underground cellar with controlled temperatures until released for sale.

Organoleptic characteristics: the color is a bright red with shades from ruby ​​to garnet. The scent is very complex with floral notes in particular violet, sweet spices such as cinnamon and nutmeg. The flavor is strong with good freshness and great structure thanks to a vigorous but elegant tannin. The finish is persistent and delicately balsamic.

Food pairings: the wine has good tannicity but also delicacy, making it pleasant to pair with dishes with good succulence such as: caciucco; soft crab with Singapore sauce; pigeon, curry and fermented apricots; duck in orange sauce; leg of lamb with capunet.
