Production Highlights
After destemming the grapes were fermented separately with the skins for two weeks. They were then pressed and aged in oak barrels for eight months, after which they were mixed to create the final blend.
Wine Characteristics
The wine reveals typical fruit aromas with hints of red fruit scents, is slightly jammy and seasoned with a pinch of green scents.
A medium bodied, complex and richly flavored wine that is ready to drink now but will keep beautifully in the bottle for the coming three years.
The wine is an ideal accompaniment for spaghetti ragu, roast veal dishes and rich hard cheeses such as Tomme and Gouda.
