Bright ruby in color with a delicate hint of cherry on the nose. On the palate, it is harmonious and elegant due to naturally mild acidity and tannin with a pleasant bitter almond flavour on the finish. An elegant, fruity red wine with good lengths.

An interesting wine for Mediterranean and Pasta dishes, as well as antipasti. Serve chilled.

Calcareous soils at medium altitude, where the grapes can benefit most from the Mediterranean climate with warm summer days combined with cool mountain nights.

Temperature controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks with 6 days of skin contact, followed by the maturation in traditional large oak casks.

Aromas of drying herbs and freshly cut grass lead the way, with tart red fruits adding brightness. The wine is lean and herbal, with an edge of slightly dried herbs as a hint of cranberry and sour cherry lingers. All culminating in a brisk finish that invites another sip. Best when served with a slight chill. -J.P.
