“The up-front mulberry and plum fruit is ripe and fleshy in this balanced red, with polished tannins. Notes of licorice string, graphite, tarry smoke and grilled mushroom push through midpalate and on the finish. Drink now through 2021. 8,500 cases made".

Our Thoughts...............

This cru is made mainly from a selection of the best Montepulciano and Aglianico grapes grown in the Ramitello vineyard of Campomarino. Full, mellow and velvety wine; with a perfect blend of flavor’s such as plum, undergrowth and hints of leather and liquorice, deep ruby red in color with violet reflections. Ideal with rich dishes, especially game, ripe cheeses, roasted chicken, pasta with red sauce or grilled meats.
