Grown over 650m above sea level, this is an award winning Taurasi of superior quality. It has a deep ruby red colour with hints of orange. It has a full perfume of black pepper, dark berry fruits and tobacco. It is dry, well balanced and full bodied. The palate expresses flavours of ripe dark fruit (plum, sour cherries), smoke and oak with ripe almost sweet tannins. This wine has a strong aging potential. This wine pairs well with rich dishes incorporating red meat or game with rich sauces, mushrooms and recipes that are spiced or truffled.
