Very wide nose of berries, chocolate cherry, violets and a mild spicy note of star anise. Afterwards it displays fully developed aromas of leather, sealing wax, Kentucky tobacco and black coffee. Full-bodied wine with sweet tannin and plenty of extract to balance out the whole structure. It is juicy and rich with a surprising lush style.

“The Gotha of Taste”. In 2009 Michele Moschioni was awarded “The Gotha of Taste” by The Hotelier Press International Academy for the excellence of his wines. The video is an opportunity to watch again the television interview given in the barrique cellar on the occasion of the award: a document that summarises the company’s identity through the images and dialogue with journalist Stephan de Cennetich. This milestone tells of how the true passion of a winemaker for red wines in a land of white wines has made of him an international icon and an essential reference for international lovers of great vintage wines.

Pairing Suggestions: You can pair it with well-structured first dishes, red meat and stewed mushrooms.

Maturation: It ages for several months in barriques, then in large oak barrels followed by a period of bottle-ageing.
