Vinification and aging: Part of the grapes come from over-ripening on the plant – Spontaneous fermentation – Short maceration of the skins in steel.
The result
Tasting notes: Lively ruby red. The nose opens with varietal hints of fresh red fruit: cherry, raspberry, blackcurrant and blackberry; vegetal, spicy and undergrowth accents complete the aromatic traits. On the palate it is fresh, juicy, satisfying, with lively tannins.
Pairings: This is a pure red wine, exuberant, of good drinkability in a 2 litre transparent glass bottles. It goes well with the classic country snack of bread and salami but also in combination with a plate of “white” ragù (without tomato) and tagliatelle.
