Tasting notes
Rich ruby with violet reflections. Pleasant, almost beguiling nose with notes of cassis, ripe cherries, a little vanilla, nougat and dried herbs. Very smooth and medium-density on the palate, with light aromas of ripe berries, sour cherries, fine wood and warm spices. The finely polished tannins and the long finish make the Villa Antinori a "little Supertuscan".

Details
Pleasant nose of cassis, ripe cherry, vanilla, nougat and herbs. Fresh and smooth on the palate with notes of fine wood and warm spices. One year of aging in barriques.
Recommendation
The red for all occasions: goes well with pasta, polenta and pizza as well as with veal schnitzel with sage or meat dishes with sauce.
Vinification
The grapes - all from our own production - are destemmed after harvest, gently pressed and fermented in steel tanks for twelve days at a temperature below 30° C. By the end of the year, the young wine has completed its malolactic fermentation and is aged for twelve months in French, American and Slavonian barriques. The wine then rests in the bottle for at least eight months before it goes on sale.
