Tasting Notes

Aroma

The bouquet is of dark fruits: blackberries and blood plums with notes of crystalline chestnuts and rose petal.

Appearance

Ruby red in colour.

Palate

The palate continues in a similar vein, with fleshy fruit, silky tannins and a very persistent finish of minerality, forest fruits and black pepper. Excellent drinkability especially with a little bottle age.

Vinification

Sourced from a vineyard in the shadow of the Ancient Greek temples of Paestum and in the heart of the National Park of Cilento, Valley of Diano and Alburni, at Capaccio-Paestum in the locality of Cannito. The vines were planted at 150-210 metres with south-west exposure, on alluvial clay soils. The vines (average age 20 years) are trained guyot, and a green harvest is usually carried out. The hand-harvested grapes undergo a gentle crush and are fermented and aged for 12 months in stainless steel tanks after a maceration on skins at low temperatures.

Cellaring Potential

Drink now and over the coming 3 years.

Food Matching

Serve at 14 - 16 degrees C with a range of savoury and flavoursome dishes such as grilled or roasted meats, poultry and game or with a medium aged cheeses such as pecorino.
