The “Prince” of our regional wines, it is an intense ruby red wine with red-berries fragrance and spicy notes and a full-bodied, harmonic and perfectly tannic taste. It goes very well with important main courses, red meats, game and seasoned cheeses. To be served at 60/64°F .

Vinification: The picked grapes are traditionally vinified by a long maceration of the skins with at a controlled temperature. Wine is racked off, pumped over and decanted into stainless steel tanks at the end of the malolactic process. It ages for a short period in oak barrels.

Colour: Intense ruby red with purple tints.

Bouquet: Elegant, with black cherry and wild fruits overtones blended in black pepper notes, cocoa and balsamic aromas.

Taste: Full-bodied and velvety, endowed with smooth tannins and a pleasant, persistent finish.
