🌟 A warm and generous southern Italian red — smooth, richly fruited, and bursting with Mediterranean soul.

👁 In the Glass:
Deep ruby with violet hues — intense, youthful, and inviting.

👃 On the Nose:
Fragrant and full, offering ripe aromas of black cherry, plum jam, and dried figs, accented by hints of spice, sweet tobacco, and a whisper of Mediterranean herbs. A touch of vanilla and mocha from oak aging adds softness and depth.

👅 On the Palate:
Velvety and round, with a core of luscious dark fruit — think ripe blackberry, cherry liqueur, and blackcurrant — balanced by gentle tannins and a warm, spicy finish. Smooth and supple, yet with enough structure and lift to keep it vibrant and food-friendly.

🍽️ Food Pairing:
A natural match for slow-cooked ragù, grilled meats, pizza with cured meats, or aged pecorino cheese — the perfect partner to hearty southern fare.

⏳ Ageing Potential:
Ready to enjoy now for its plush, fruit-driven character, though it can rest for 3–5 years, gaining mellow notes of leather, spice, and dried herbs.
