Description
Molise DOC, 15.5% ABV, produced by Di Majo Norante, a historic winery since 1968. An organic Riserva red, a tribute to the passion and dedication of the Di Majo Norante family. 0.75 L bottle, 2019 vintage. A wine made from Montepulciano and Aglianico grapes, carefully grown in the calcareous soils of Martarosa. Traditional vinification, with long contact of the must with the pomace, and aging in small oak barrels, give this wine intensity and structure. Intense, highly harmonious, with a perfect blend of ripe fruit aromas reminiscent of undergrowth, plum, and hints of toasted wood and vanilla. A rich, intense, and well-structured wine, ideal for accompanying rich dishes.
