Fermentation and aged in steel for 12 months, followed by further aging in French and American oak barrels, and an additional 12 months of in-bottle refining. A dense ruby red, with violet reflections.  The nose offers good complexity: fruit jam, marasca cherry and black currant, spicy tones of vanilla, licorice root, chocolate, with graphite mineral notes in the finish.  The wine is very well-balanced on the palate, it’s warm, compact, with soft tannins   Excellent persistence, and dominated by fruity references.  Best combined with meats and great traditional Umbrian dishes.
