Balsamic, grassy and notes of many different fruits. Opens with notes of Mediterranean macchia and aromas of seaweed piled on Sicilian beaches. The red fruit is sour cherry and very ripe blackberry; the citrus fruit is bergamot and bitter orange. The spices are carob flour and incense. On the palate the ripe fruit combines well with the wood tannin in accompanying a very densely textured tannin but open and measured to the structure of this wine with its complex and unmistakable personality.
Pair with red meat, well-matured and marbled; even better with more intense flavors like game, lamb, pork or even sliced sausage.
