Tasting notes
Colour Intense ruby red Bouquet Full, complex, intense bouquet of marasca, prune and berries, with spiced notes Palate Warm, elegant and persistent with a great structure

Rating
 Wine Spectator 90 points (Feb 29 2012)
Smells of the mountain, featuring aromas of pine, wildflower and stone that give way to ripe wild berry notes and firm tannins. Structured, with a minerally aftertaste. Drink now through 2016. 1,600 cases made. –NW Rated #100 in Wine Spectator’s 2012 Top 100

Other text
Irpinia land owes its character to its unusual microclimate thermic excursions between night and day which is ideal for the cultivation of the great Irpinia wines; because it gives a good point of maturation, without alterating the sugar levels.

Food pairing
A fine match to steak and game (deer, wild boar, etc.), truffle , pasta with full body sauces and cheese
