Tasting Notes
Visual Appearance
Deep and intense garnet red, crossed by warm amber reflections
Aromatic Sensations
A broad and complex bouquet, where notes of ripe and jammy red fruit (cherry, dried plum) evolve towards a darker and deeper register: hints of leather, sweet tobacco and spices, tied together by a balsamic note of undergrowth.
Taste-Olfactory Sensations
On the palate, it's enveloping, supported by dense, velvety tannins and a vibrant acidity that adds freshness and energy. The finish is remarkably persistent, with echoes of sweet spices, leather, and a final note of licorice root.
The Word of the Producer
There are truths that only time can reveal. This Riserva is the embodiment of that thought. It is not a wine that is produced, but a wait that is fulfilled: the moment when an exceptional vintage, after a long and silent dialogue with the wood and with itself, is ready to reveal its deepest soul.
In the glass, time becomes matter. A layered story is revealed, a complex architecture where each element has found its definitive place. Its power is not muscular, but the serene strength of wisdom. It is a sip that demands to be listened to, a lingering echo, the naked truth of Sangiovese and its chosen place.
It is a wine not to be drunk, but to be meditated upon. The most complex truth of our terroir, finally revealed.
