Produced exclusively from pinot noir grapes is, in a way, the alter ego of Cervaro della Sala: together, in fact, they represent the two different expressions of the complex and refined soul of the Castello. A red wine as dynamic as it is elegant, whose vinification takes place in steel and subsequent maturation in barriques for a total period of about 8 months. A further bottle aging of about 15 months leads to a wine of rare stuff, exquisite, undoubtedly among the best interpretations of the type outside France.
Tasting Notes.: by. color rgarnet bone bright, the nose recalls delicate aromas ranging from spices to hints of violets and roses with hints of small red fruits. The palate is soft and savory, with refined, silky and sweet tannins. The finish is long and balanced, available right away but with great aging potential.
Pairings: a whole meal, it is exalted with roasts of all kinds, especially pork. Excellent with medium-aged sheep's milk cheeses.
