N° 8

Red wine without DOP/IGP.
Shiny and consistent ruby red.
The fragrance recalls sour cherry, dried figs and bergamot, with a touch of wood which increase his complexity.
On the palate the sweetness – although present – is properly balanced by the acidity and the strong tannin. Long finish on the salty notes.
Contains sulfites.
