Description

A wine born from the Rivetti family's passion for Tuscany, with grapes sourced from Casanova and Sezzana. Alcoholic fermentation in rotofermenters for 10–11 days at a controlled temperature.

Aromas reminiscent of berries, sweet spices, and fresh cut flowers with distinct fruit notes. Very dark ruby red. Soft tannins and a lovely spicy finish. An intense and complex wine, ideal for pairing with red meats and aged cheeses.
