“Refinement in American barrique at least for 3 – 6 months”

Deep ruby red in colour with vibrant aromas of ripe black cherries, plums and wild berries, complemented by subtle notes of vanilla, cocoa and sweet spice. The palate is soft and generous, offering layers of juicy dark fruit, silky tannins and a smooth, velvety texture. Well-balanced and approachable, it finishes with excellent freshness and lingering notes of blackberry and spice.

A modern and elegant expression of Primitivo that delivers richness and character while maintaining remarkable drinkability.
