This sophisticated Riserva perfectly encapsulates Tuscany's splendid terroir.

Tasting Notes

Balance of components. It has an intense ruby red colour. Its bouquet has hints of red and black berries, such as black cherry, raspberry, blueberry and red and blackcurrants; delicate citrus notes that add alovely freshness. Even the floral hints characterise the profile of this wine with aromas that bring to mind violets and rosehip. In conclusion, spicy notes of black pepper and balsamic notes. The tannic texture is clearly present and is extremely elegant
