Tasting notes

A bright delicate ruby red, which often describes our Riserva. Fine and elegant at the nose, with earthy and iron notes, which perfectly translate the soil of this special plot of land. Our Riserva 2019 is the outcome of a vintage of balance and richness, such characteristics become obvious in the palate where tannins appear to be silky and available, thus demonstrating an energy that will allow this wine to feel ready now, but that will also benefit from longer time in the bottle.
