The blend of Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon and a touch of Merlot ferments initially for 2 weeks in stainless steel tanks giving a fresh, clean, modern-style. This is balanced by rustic and earthy notes from 8- to 9-months in old wooden tonneaux (barrels).Ripe wild berry fruits, with spicy tobacco on the palate and healthy tannins lead to a long and velvety finish.
