The Story
A magnificent Central Italian red wine displaying a bright, elegant ruby red color with subtle violet highlights. Sourced from a high-altitude, panoramic single vineyard in the cool Gaiole UGA zone, this prestigious estate bottling opens with an intensely perfumed and multi-layered bouquet of fresh raspberries, wild blackcurrants, blood orange peel, and red pomegranates. The complex, highly refined profile is beautifully layered with distinctive regional notes of crushed limestone, white pepper, lavender, and a subtle touch of gianduja chocolate. On the palate, it balances a lively, medium-bodied red fruit core with a remarkably racy, linear acidity and tightly woven, silty-smooth tannins, culminating in an unforgettable, mouthwatering finish rich with saline and mineral-drenched depth.
Food Pairing: Pairs flawlessly with prime cuts of grilled red meat, roasted game birds, artisanal pasta with rich tomato- and meat-based ragù, and aged Tuscan pecorino cheeses.
