Riserva\u003c\/strong\u003e, one of the most prestigious expressions of Irpinia and the Campania region. The grapes come from Montemarano, in the province of Avellino, from vineyards located 870 meters above sea level, on predominantly clayey soils rich in skeleton, with a north-west exposure. These conditions contribute to defining a style of great tension, with structure, freshness, and capacity for evolution. The 2012 vintage, combined with a long aging in wood and subsequent refinement in the bottle, yields a wine designed for expressive maturity and a high-level table.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the glass, it presents a brilliant ruby red color, deep and luminous.
