Grapes: Sangiovese, Colorino, Canaiolo, Moscato nero.
In the glass it shines in full ruby-red. Complex aromas, indications of pepper and cinnamon in the nose. With red fruits and fine tannin it pleases our palate. A round body with a long finish.

"With a few swirls of the glass, this releases alluring scents of fragrant blue flowers, wild berries, pipe tobacco and menthol. Made from the grapes of old vines of Sangiovese sourced from five top estate vineyards, the vibrant, elegant palate features juicy raspberry, Morello cherry, licorice and toasted nuts alongside taut, fine-grained tannins. It's still young and primary, with bright acidity. It needs a few more years to fully develop and will still offer years of pleasure. Drink 2023-2030. Kerin O'Keefe"
