Taurasi DOCG
The color is ruby red tending towards garnet, deep and impenetrable. Its long aging in wood makes it elegant and harmonious. It is a wine of great complexity, with a wide range of aromas that offer notes of violet, marasca cherry, licorice, cocoa, and tobacco to the nose. Structured, soft, mature, and enveloping on the palate.
