This fine Riserva wine is made from the best grapes of eight select vineyards in Castello di Albola, each of which contributes to the end result by delivering a particular note of Sangiovese, made from a single grape variety. The bouquet evokes the strength of the forest and the elegance of the higher rows; with every sip, it translates the warmth of this land into a powerful expression. After resting for almost three years, including fourteen months in oak barrels and another eighteen months in bottle, the ageing process brings out a buoyant personality, with smooth tannins, and a savoury, concentrated taste with hints of black fruit and cut flowers.
