## Summary

A light, carefully extracted red from a native grape, rested in a 19th-century balmetto cellar. First made in 2024, 800 bottles.

## Tasting notes

Bright, limpid ruby colour. Fruity and floral nose of wild berries, raspberry and macerated wild strawberries with rose petals, medicinal herbs, violet and a balsamic freshness. Full, spirited and balanced on the palate, with a significant tannic backbone, energy and a savoury finish.

## Food pairings

Dishes fragrant with aromatic spices, polenta with porcini mushrooms, game and cheeses that are not too aged
