Production Details Approximately 60–70 days of skin contact are accompanied by manual cap submersion, followed by approximately 4.5 years in large used botti. The distributor lists residual sugar below 3 g/L and acidity as 0.56 g/L without stating the analytical basis, so neither is promoted to an exact canonical analytical value. It places the vineyard at 270–300 metres, differing from the producer's exact 240-metre site figure.
Tasting Notes Red and dark berries, spice, violets and stone fruit; structured, concentrated, elegant and mineral, with a long finish and mature tannins.
