The wine bears a Denominazione di Origine Controllata e Garantita (DOCG) status, which guarantees its quality and proves that it meets specific requirements.

The aging process of this wine takes place in oak barrels for eighteen months, giving it intense aromas of black fruits, spices, and tobacco.

Tasting Notes
A radiant ruby-red colour. Among the main descriptors, fruity notes begin with red and black berries, including raspberry, wild strawberry, black cherry, blackcurrant and blackberry. These are supported by sweet vanilla and rounded off with balsamic notes, pepper and cinnamon. The palate is well-rounded and sumptuously elegant; the alcohol and acidic content balance out perfectly. The after-taste is fruity with a hint of juniper berry. The mineral finish is long and juicy.
