A luminous ruby red in appearance, it stands out for its crisp freshness on a nose that is both stylish and refined, with delicate scents of cherry and morello cherry blossoms. Crisp and long-lingering in the mouth, it embodies the red wine deeply traditional to the area, perfect on every occasion.
Perfect as an aperitif wine, it is delicious as well with main courses of lighter meats and boiled red meats, and with more casual meals.
Depending on growing season conditions, grapes are harvested between the last third of September and the first third of October. The grapes are picked exclusively by hand. After the clusters are hand-picked, they are de-stemmed and pressed, and the berries macerate for 10-12 days in steel. After the fermentation, the wine is pressed off the skins and remains in cement vats for at least 6 months.
