👁 In the Glass:
Deep ruby red—vibrant, intense, and inviting.

👃 On the Nose:
Fragrant and complex, with aromas of blackberry, raspberry, and wild cherry. Subtle notes of vanilla, sweet spice, and cedar from oak ageing round out the bouquet with warmth and sophistication.

👅 On the Palate:
Full of character, with medium, velvety tannins and bright acidity that lift the lush dark fruit core. Layers of red and black berries are enriched by hints of cocoa, spice, and a touch of earth. The finish is long, smooth, and satisfyingly savoury.

A perfect partner for grilled lamb, meatballs in tomato sauce, eggplant parmigiana, or aged Pecorino. Its depth and freshness make it versatile with rich Mediterranean dishes.

⏳ Ageing Potential:
Beautifully drinkable now, but will evolve over 5–8 years, gaining more complexity and finesse.
