Sistina

Intense and strong red-coloured wine, with a complex bouquet, from which red fruit and spicy scents stand out, after having been refined in steel and barriques. Its taste is full-bodied, dry, harmonic and pleasantly tannic. It perfectly matches with red meats, game and seasoned cheeses.

Vinification: The picked grapes are traditionally vinified by a long maceration of the skins with submerged cap at controlled temperature. Wine is racked off, pumped over and decanted into stainless steel tanks at the end of the malolactic process.

Colour: Intense ruby red with purple highlights.

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.
