«What the tongue cannot express well, mute eloquence expressed in its gestures» Intense ruby red. It begins on the nose with notes of sweet leather, spice, cherry; on the palate it is soft, elegant and fresh. «Forty years after my first writings - elementary judgments - I realized that, always, the wine - so individual, pure, national, harmonious - was above, that words were not enough to give the "meaning" of it, even if they were momentum and invention. Better, a thousand times better, abandoning yourself to the involvements, suggestions, hugs, penetrations, which gradually emerge in the tasting, not material but intellectual, and mark them. The affirmation comes from the great Veronelli who has taught more than a few generations with his inexhaustible vein of neologisms regarding the sensations that wine is capable of transmitting. Often the truth of wine is elusive, untranslatable and it is necessary to recognize the ineffectiveness of words. So much so that wine becomes an enjoyable beverage, even without the use of words, due to the privilege it possesses of communicating forcefully, of moving people through its innate eloquence.
