Explosive aromas of sweet, ripe red cherry, chocolate-covered plum, violet and cappuccino. Enters rich and suave, then turns somewhat more austere, offering lovely purity to its red fruit and sweet baking spice flavors. Displays lovely balance for a sagrantino with the Antonelli-signature silky tannins and great length. Very well done.

Grape vareety: Sagrantino 100%, from our best selection massale grafts on rootstock 420A.

Vinification: by gravity after selection of grapes. Fermentation in contact with the skins for 20 days at a maximum temperature of 28°C.; malolactic fermentation in wood.

Agein: in lightly toasted 500 L barrels for 6 months then in 25 hL oak barriques for 15 months followed by assembling and clarifying in cement vats for 3 months; final ageing in the bottle for 2 years.

The wine isn’t stabilised nor filtered.
