Tasting notes: the long steep must/peelings consents the estraction
of aromas and substances, which determine a very individual red wine
of great structure, obtained from selected grapes. From the first moment
it presents itself fascinating, fine and intensive, fruity and spicy,
with touches of blackberries and aromatic essences.
On the palate it is round, of considerable strength, with tannins
that give it a decisive character, but without damaging its softness
and equilibration. Remarkable is the very long and tasteful final.

matured cheese. Serving temperature: 16°-18° C.
