Winemaker Notes
A still red wine, our red table wine for every day. This wine is the result of a project inspired by the desire to produce basic wines with immediate and fresh character, but at the same time with good complexity and structure. We have been producing this wine since 1988 in the still version, in total respect of our territo- ry’s full potential, expressing the most authentic aromas and character of our land with refined, universal balance. Since the 2012 harvest, this wine is produced without the use of any sulfites, giving it a more natural, healthy quality and clean crisp aroma.
Food & Wine Pairing
Pair this with hearty first dishes and white meats, for the entire meal for a substantial midday lunch.
