"Centrato e radioso nel calice offre un profilo difficile da scolpire con note intense di prugne nere, more selvatiche, amarene, cioccolato fondente, canfora e buccia di arancia. Tanto succo di pompelmo rosa, bacche di ginepro , cumino e cuoio dominano la scena secondaria. Corpo pieno, tannini morbidi e vellutati perfettamente levigati dall?azione del tempo ed un finale che in modo mordente chiude verace e leggermente rustico lasciando immaginare il bellissimo blend tutto italiano di Sangiovese, Colorino e Malvasia Nera. Bevi ora o invecchia."
