A magnificent vintage, the product of a very Mediterranean yet regular season that was decidedly ‘Bolgheri-esque’. The color is an intense ruby-garnet and the bouquet elegant and clean with notes of wild berries that are full and elegant with balsamic hints in the background. The mouthfeel is velvety, almost silky, without any tartness, composed, fine and with a nice agile body and a surprising persistence. A virtuous mix of elegance and drinkability.
