Tasting Notes
Appearance: Deep ruby red with vibrant violet reflections.
Nose: Intense and inviting, with generous aromas of ripe cherries and wild berries, complemented by delicate floral notes of violet.
Palate: Rich and expressive, with layers of ripe red fruit and cherry, beautifully balanced by subtle floral and spicy nuances. Silky, well-integrated tannins lend structure and elegance, while Barbera’s characteristic acidity brings freshness and vitality. Full-bodied yet harmonious, with a long, refined finish.
