Address:
Via Alba, 15 - 12050 - Fontanafredda (CN), Italy
Color: garnet red
Bouquet: pronounced and intense, but maintains a note of kindness with important hints of dried rose and violet. By nose you can easily detect tertiary aromas, typical of a wine aged in barrels such as coffee and tobacco
Taste: the texture of the tannins is thick and dense: the entrance is soft, almost velvety, and then explodes in a sensation of fruit well balanced by the acidic freshness. The aftertaste is very long and rich.
