Makuprofiili
In the glass, this wine typically shows a deep ruby tone with youthful intensity and graceful concentration. The bouquet is expected to unfold with layered aromas of ripe red cherry, plum, dried herbs, violet, and subtle spice, complemented by earthy undertones and a refined floral lift from the Sangiovese. On the palate, it should be expressive and structured, combining bright acidity with firm but polished tannins. Flavors of dark cherry, red berry fruit, Mediterranean herbs, and a touch of savory complexity lead into a long, elegant finish. This is a wine built for aging, and the 2021 vintage should continue to develop beautifully over time, gaining depth and nuance with bottle maturation.
