Site: Located on the hills 300-400 meters above sea level; southern and southwesterly exposure; training system spurred cordon & Guyot.

Grapes: 70% Sangiovese, 15% Sagrantino and 15% Montepulciano.

Notes: Ruby red in color. Olfactory impact intense and fruity, with cherry and wild berry notes. To the palate it is dry, balanced and well structured. The freshness provided by the Sangiovese gives it an excellent drinkability. A quality table wine that goes well with flavorsome first courses (ravioli, risotto, tagliatelle); red meat and mature cheeses. Ready to drink but can be bottle-aged for many years.
