The Story
A magnificent Central Italian red wine representing the absolute pinnacle of this historic estate's production. Displaying a shimmering ruby red color with elegant garnet edges, the highly complex nose opens with an aristocratic and seductive bouquet of ripe dark cherries, wild forest berries, and sweet blood orange, masterfully layered with sophisticated notes of hand-rolled tobacco, dried roses, rosemary, incense, and a distinct mineral undercurrent of graphite. Crafted using an ultra-precise Burgundian-style integral vinification in specialized small barrels, the medium-to-full-bodied palate balances a powerful elegance and a vibrant, vertical Sangiovese energy with an incredibly polished, tight-knit structure of sweet, velvety tannins, carrying into an exceptionally long, fresh, and enveloping finish with a warm, balsamic-toned aftertaste.
Food Pairing: Pairs flawlessly with structured dishes of red meat, slow-braised wild boar, roasted venison, rich truffle pasta, and well-aged Italian hard cheeses.
