Description

Production: Vineyard in organic conversion. Aged in 22 hl Slavonian wood casks for 48 months. The wine is then aged in bottle for over 24 months. Released at least six years after the vintage as per Brunello di Montalcino Riserva appellation.

Tasting: Deep ruby to garnet-red in colour. Very complex nose, with notes of plums, blackberry, black cherry, spices and earthy minerality. On the palate, pleasantly dry, warm, full and persistent with structuring tannins. Great ageing potential (15 + years).

Pairings: Slow-roast red meats and game.
