A bold wine Riserva with unique expressions of minerality, fruit and spice.
A year in stainless steel followed by a year in oak allows this Riserva to be a big and weighty. An earthy bouquet with fruit taking the background on this older vintage combined with good fermentation lends this wine to truly unique characteristics . Minerality and dark fruit lead way to bold yet balanced tannins and a lasting earthy finish with a delicate touch of spice. Excellent with roast meat, wild fowl, spicy dishes and cured meats.
