Fermentation on the skins for around 20 days. Maturation for 14 months in new French oak barrels with at least a further 10 months of ageing in bottle.

Ruby colour. Seductive nose of red cherry, blackberry, dried plum, vanilla and Mediterranean herbs. This Bolgheri is dry on the palate, with balanced acidity and juicy, sweetish tannins. The finish is long, showing red berries and fine spice.

Based in Castagneto Carducci in the province of Livorno, this estate produces wines of remarkable authenticity from its 3.5 hectares under vine.
