On the nose, it offers an intense and fruity bouquet with light spicy notes, while on the palate it is harmonious, with good structure and persistence. The partial aging in barriques helps to refine the tannins without altering the varietal notes of the grape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClassification:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ticino DOC\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Red Wine\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAllergens:\u003c\/strong\u003e Contains sulfites\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePhilosophy:\u003c\/strong\u003e Integrated production\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNote: Product images are for illustrative purposes only; the label design or bottle shape may vary depending on the vintage or winery restyling.
