Red
Il Maestro
By Giuseppe Stella, Asti, Piemonte, Italy
Tasting notes
Intense ruby red with slightly orange reflections. Intense and ethereal, with jammy notes of plums in spirit, figs and blackberries. Large structure and notable body, soft and long on the palate, with good acidity for freshness and balance.
