Malolactic fermentation in stainless steel, assembly and bottling in March.
Serving combinations
First course dishes with meat sauce, second courses based on white and red meats, roasted or grilled. Traditional regional aged cheeses.
The wine
Deep ruby red with delicate notes of violet. On the nose it reveals typical hints of cherry, and morello cherry, raspberry and cassis with delicate typical vegetable traces. Soft and dry on the palate. The things who strikes you about this wine are the great softness of its tannins and the remarkable aromatic freshness.
