Information
Tasting notes
Dense garnet red, flooded with light. On the nose, it captivates with the purity of its aromas: black cherry, liquorice and rose petals come together with tobacco and sweet spices, followed by notes of candied orange and pine resin. On the palate, it has depth and coherence, flowing with elegance and drinkability, with firm tannins and remarkable energy. Notable persistence and a slightly bitter finish, with spicy echoes of cocoa.
Origin
A small, ancient vineyard and a winery in Guagnano, created to produce this wine alone. An authentic and extraordinary expression of a «cru».
Vinification and maturation
After careful selection, the grapes are destemmed and gently crushed, then left to macerate for around 20 days. The extraction of colour, phenolic components and aromatic compounds is encouraged by daily pump-overs of the liquid fraction over the cap of grape skins. Vinification in stainless steel. Evolution in first-use oak barriques for 18 months. Further maturation in the bottle for 18 months.
