It is an elegant, fruity and deep red wine, with rich minerality provided by the vineyard, where limestone is prominent. This red wine has been aged for 12 months in new 500L French oak barrels. The grapes were carefully selected (cluster by cluster) in 15 kg boxes from the oldest vines of the native Mantonegro variety. The wine is blended with a portion of Merlot from younger vines, which gives it more structure.
