Dark ruby red with violet reflections. Thoroughly complex and dense on the nose with cool, aristocratic notes. Black berries, cedar wood and roasted aromas. On the palate it shows an attractive balance and already silky tannins, a harmoniously integrated acidity and aromas of black pepper, new leather, chocolate, tobacco and ripe, dark berries. Long-lasting and harmonious on the finish. A highly elegant, distinctive Bordeaux blend.

Details
The flagship wine of the company matures for six months in Slavonian oak and a further two years in French barriques. It has a magnificent bouquet of ripe wild berries, cedar wood and a hint of vanilla. The palate is perfectly balanced, sustained by fine tannins and marked by subtle complexity and stunning elegance.
Recommendations
This top wine calls for grilled lamb or a cotoletta alla milanese.
Vinification
The grapes (average age of the vines: ten to 25 years) are harvested by hand and are subject to strict selection. The maceration takes place in large wooden vats, followed by a six-month ageing process in 60 hl Slavonian oak barrels. The wine is then refined for 24 months in new as well as one- or two-year-old French barriques and a further eight months in the bottle.
