Tasting note
Intense red ruby color, with violet hue. Intense and complex nose of cherry, blackberry, violet, sweet spice and dye flowers, with light oaky hint. Gentle and charming on the palate, with smooth tannins, proper freshness, and delicious mineral finish.
Viticulture
The vineyards are located in the Romagna area of Italy with clay soils on a hilly site of 100m-300m with North-East, South-East exposure. Single Guyot trellising system is used with a mix of hand and mechanical hervesting.
Vinification
Grapes, some hand harvested, are destemmed and fermented at 25°c for 10 days, on skin to enhance tanin and colour extraction. MLF is encouraged after first racking off. Wine is fined and filtered before bottling.
Food Match
Great with tomato-based pasta dishes and burgers.
