It belongs to that restricted group of authentic, characteristic Chianti wines, produced with the best quality grapes of the sangiovese, colorino and canaiolo varieties.

At the nose you find immediately smells of racking off followed by fresh berries and violet. In the mouth it reveals structure, it’s characterized by a good balance between freshness, sweet tannins and persistence.

Nice with pasta dishes also in gratin, served with meat or various tomato-based sauces; good match with roasted meats and semi-mature cheeses.

Intense ruby red colour, wide and complex to the nose; fruity, with a prune and cherry jam aroma, with notes of tobacco, slightly spicy. A full-bodied wine, soft and rich in fine tannins, with notes of cocoa, coffee and vanilla in the end.

Very old vineyards selected in San Marzano and Sava. The soil is mainly red with a fine texture and a generally calcareous underground with few emerging rocks. The well-known redness of these soils is due to the presence of iron oxides. The climate is characterised by high temperatures all year round, very little rainfall and a wide temperature range between night and day, which has a positive influence on the quality of the grapes. This is the central area of d.o.p. Primitivo di Manduria.

Intense aromas of plums and cherries are just as present as tender Rosemary and vanilla notes. A very balanced and impressive representation of southern Italian wine.
