Wine Description

Ruby-red with dark core, in the nose impressions of blackberries, sour cherries and black currents, delicate note to graphit, balanced on the palate with hints of white pepper, spicy and full-bodied, fine, smooth and long finish

Winery

Connected to the soil and always open to new things characterise our work. The vineyards are cultivated expertly and ecologically, the grapes are harvested exclusively by hand and the wine is given plenty of time to develop in the cellar.
