Grape Variety: Negroamaro
Alcohol: 14.5% Vol
Vinification: Careful selection of the Negroamaro bunches of the old bush-trained vineyard. Grapes ripe on trees first and then dry on racks. Once withered, grapes go to vinification. The physiological processes that occur in the grape and the fermentation of must in late autumn,when the climate is cooler, determine a development which is completely different from traditional vinification. The temperature of the must is kept under strict control during the entire process of slow fermentation and the first ageing period is made in small wood barrels. Ageing period: about l year.
Colour: The colour is a nice dark ruby red, with garnet red nuances, bright.
Bouquet: The smell is complex and honest. Attractive, ethereal, with avours of dried fruits and liquorice,pleasantly spicy. Well structured, warm, elegant, with a tobacco notice and dried fruits as well as vanilla notes.
Taste: The mouth reveals a very pleasant evolution of flavours which express themselves with elegance and balance.
