👁 In the Glass:
Deep ruby red with garnet flashes—inviting and expressive.

👃 On the Nose:
Fragrant and complex, with notes of ripe cherry, blackberry, and wild plum. Accents of sweet spice, balsamic herbs, and a hint of cocoa add warmth and depth.

👅 On the Palate:
Medium to full-bodied with well-integrated tannins and fresh acidity. Juicy red and black fruits are balanced by earthy undertones and a firm structure, courtesy of Sagrantino. The finish is long and savoury with a spicy, mineral edge.

Perfect with grilled meats, pasta with ragu, aged cheeses, or roasted game. Its structure and freshness shine alongside rustic, flavourful dishes.

Ready to enjoy now but will evolve beautifully over the next 5–7 years, gaining elegance and complexity.
