Tasting Notes

100% Sangiovese. Elegant with distinctive aromas of red berries, blackberry, and violet notes. The aging in oak barrels adds complexity to the wine, as well as subtle vanilla notes. The taste has a broad and tangy character and confirms the aromatic balance that is revealed by the nose. The perfect combination of vibrant acidity with soft tannins grants the wine an amazing structure.
