TASTING NOTES

At first glance the color is ruby red. It has cherry and small, red, woodland fruits on the nose. There are hints of fresh red fruit on the palate. This wine features balanced tannins.

VINEYARD

12 hectares located in Bastia, exactly on the valley between the Val d’Alpone and Val d’Illasi. The shaley clay and subalkaline land are formed in a broad plateau with slight slopes, produced by the alteration of limestone formations and in particular the white and red scales. The volcano (basalt) is non-existent.
