Often the truth about a wine is ungraspable, untranslatable, and one must recognize the inefficacity of words. In such cases wine simply becomes an enjoyable drink, having no need of words, boasting its own power of communication, of moving the taster by its innate eloquence.

Rosso corallo, brillante, con toni cerasuoli. Al naso richiama note di fiori, con sfumature di frutti rossi;, piacevole, nitido e di buona freschezza al palato. Clou de girofle, il chiodo di garofano, è una spezia forte dall’aroma penetrante, caldo e ricco; il sapore è insieme pungente e amaro. Le spezie raccontano profumi e sapori esotici riconducibili molte volte ai caratteri e ai valori dei vini, in special modo di questo prezioso vitigno capace di segnare sottilmente il suo rosato e in modo più suggestivo i suoi grandi rossi invecchiati.

The grapes come from old alberello-trained vines of Negroamaro, picked late. The surmaturation, or slight raisining of the grapes, gives the wine a complex structure.
Intense colour with purple tints, tending to garnet. This is a wine which develops all its potential character during refinement in small barrels, a process which stabilizes the colour and softens the astringency of the tannins: the wine acquires a fresh aroma and a regal sumptuosity.
