Profumo

Perfume

The aromas of this wine range from wild berries (wild blackberry, raspberry, blueberry) to sour cherries, to spicy notes of black pepper, mint, cocoa, liquorice, tobacco and vanilla, with different intensities depending on ageing.

Colore

Color

Schioppettino wine has a more or less deep ruby red colour, with evident violet notes that tend to fade with ageing.

Gusto

Taste

On the palate, Schioppettino is dry, soft and round, with a good full body. There is a vibrant fresh-savoury vein supporting a well-integrated, velvety tannic mass of pleasant texture. Aromas consistently echo the aromas, from small red and black fruit to spicy notes, with a lingering finish enriched by herbaceous and green pepper flavours.
