THE WINEMAKER'S COMMENT

The result is a particularly elegant Brunello Riserva with a complex personality. On the nose there are hints that gradually reveal themselves, from liquorice, coffee, plum jam and tobacco to finish with a light note of violet. The refined structure is in perfect balance with the acid part, which excellently supports the long persistence.

FOOD PAIRINGS

A long-aging wine that sublimely accompanies rich and complex dishes. Also perfect as a meditation wine.
