Obtained from a cuvée of old clones of Montepulciano vinified in purity, it is a red of great balance that manages to combine strength, elegance and character.

Intense and bright ruby red color to the eye. The nose is opened by the classic floral hints of violet, then followed by the fruity notes of plum, morello cherry and cherry, finally completed by a pleasant mineral nuance.
