An iconic wine, full of personality, where elegance always prevails over power. Complex, balanced and well-orchestrated, with extraordinary longevity. An intense red colour with garnet highlights. The nose is marked by typical notes of plum, cherry and morello, followed by tea leaves, liquorice and spices. The palate reveals overtones of red berries, sweetened by soft spicy notes, in perfect balance with the acidity and tannins.
