Tasting Notes
Clear, ruby ​​red color with light garnet reflections, consistent.
The olfactory examination highlights floral, fruity and toasted hints. Notes of red flowers such as peony and violet, dark berry fruits such as blackberry and plum, closing with a note of sweet tobacco.
The sample is fresh to the sip, with a moderate tannic texture, balanced in its components and quite harmonious.
It is recommended in combination with pici with wild boar sauce.
