Description
The wine shows less volume compared to some of the more opulent vintages, but it absolutely excels in terms of length and finishes. It offers amazing drive and momentum that are fueled by the extremely fine nature of the wine's texture and the seamless unity of its flavours. It treads in light and delicate footsteps that will carry it far into the future. As they say in Italian: "Piano piano si va lontano"

Tasting Profile
palate
Sweet tobacco and berry with hints of currants. Full, soft and silky. Lots of fruit and a long finish. It's subtle, dense and sophisticated.
