This full-bodied red wine showcases firm tannins, an impressive structure and an impressively lengthy finish. Aged for 24 months in French oak barrels and another 36 in the bottle, it exemplifies meticulous winemaking. This Sagrantino DOCG is a distinctively stylish wine, deserving recognition for the character, elegance, and quality it delivers.
