Intense, deep garnet red. Spicy nose of plum and cherry with a hint of raspberry. Soft, velvety, full bodied with a slight aromatic lingering aftertaste.

A blend of 50% Corvina Veronese, 30% Corvinone, 15% Rondinella, and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon.

The carefully selected grapes are put in small plastic crates and dried in ventilated rooms for about three months. When they reach the perfect grade of dryness they are pressed and fermented in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks. The fermentation lasts for about 30 days and develops high alcohol contents. After a period in concrete tanks, where it undergoes Malolactic Fermentation, the wine is transferred to large oak casks of medium and large size for minimum 3 years. After bottling the wine refines for at least 6 months.
