It is harmonious and peculiar to the terroir from which it comes. It represents the winery's philosophy Baglio di Pianetto: tradition, finesse and elegance in full respect of the terroir.
Tasting notes: of color rruby bone brilliant. Complex nose meets aromas reminiscent of wild berries, blueberry and wild cherry, followed by light nuances of vanilla and licorice. Clean and fresh on the palate, smooth and balanced, with excellent persistence.
