Color: Deep ruby red, with light burgundy reflections Bouquet: Full and intense, with notes of small wild berriesand pleasing scents of noble wood, vanilla andcocoa Palate: Dry, well structured, austere and elegant; goodharmony between the tannic and acid componentsand those responsible for softness (alcohol andglycerine); excellent persistence on the palate A wine for the whole meal, particularly suitable forserving with pasta and rice, all meat dishes andcheese that is not too ripe.

Medium-light ruby. Pretty sangiovese aromas and flavors of violet, redcurrant, and light tobacco are complemented on the palate by notes of licorice and plum. Very bright and fresh, with a delectable juicy sappiness to the fruit flavors, this is a smooth, uncomplicated and easy-to-like wine with impeccable balance.
