Rich ruby with violet reflections. Delightful, almost seductive nose with notes of cassis, ripe cherries, a little vanilla, nougat and dried herbs. Very silky and medium dense on the palate, with bright flavours of ripe berries, sour cherries, fine wood and warm spices. The finely polished tannins and the long finish are what make the Villa Antinori a «little Supertuscan».

Details
Pleasing nose of cassis, ripe cherries, vanilla, nougat and herbs. Fresh and silky on the palate with notes of fine wood and warm spices. Aged for one year in barriques.
Recommendations
The red for all occasions: goes well with pasta, polenta and pizza as well as with veal cutlet with sage or meat dishes with sauce.
Vinification
The grapes – all from our own production – are destemmed after the harvest, gently pressed and fermented in stainless steel tanks for twelve days below 30°C. By the end of the year, the young wine has finished its malolactic fermentation and will be aged for twelve months in French, American and Slavonian barriques. The wine then rests in the bottle for at least eight months before going on sale.
