Radici, produced for the first time in 1986, is the result of a long and careful research about exposure, soil profiles, soil texture and chemical characteristics of the vineyards’ terroir.
Its strong, dense structure and the aromatic concentration are the most evident characters of this prestigious interpreter of Irpinian viticulture.

Colour

Bouquet

Full, complex, fine, with notes of tobacco, spices, cherry, berries and balsamic aromas.

Flavour

Pairing

Hard cheese, truffles, porcini mushrooms, ragout and dishes with slow cooked sauces, roasted red meats and spiced dishes.
