This wine is of a ruby red colour with burgundy glares and it is produced with the Sangiovese grapes of the "La Domata" vineyards. It has a ripe and intense bouquet, with undertones of red pepper, coffee and liquorice. Its taste is a full-bodied and velvety one, excellently balanced and subtle nuances, persistent and lasting. It goes well with the richest beef dishes and with very ripe cheese.
The grapes are harvested by hand at the beginning of October. The fermentation takes place in steel containers, the temperature is severely controlled for 15 - 18 days, with daily wine pressings. The wine is then carried into steel tanks where the malolactic fermentation continues until January. Aged and kept 12-18 months in barriques of French oak of 225-500 litres (approx. 50 - 111 gal.), it is bottled and still further refined for 6-8 months. Acidity 5. Alcool 13 % vol.
