Tasting Notes

The grapes come from the famous MGA “Ravera'' vineyard located in the municipality of Novello. Limestone and clay-rich soil with Marls of Sant'Agata. Ravera di Novello is a fabulous hillside vineyard with a western/south-western exposure. Altitude around 400 m asl; the average age of the vines is 34 years and there is a density of around 4.500 plants per hectare. The oldest part was planted in 1935. intense garnet-red color. The nose, stark at the beginning, reveals complex floral notes that emerge after a few minutes. Striking notes include red fruit, chalk and white pepper. Fine on the palate, with hints of ripe red berries. The taught, compact tannins make this a very classic wine. The acidity is vibrant and vertical. Very elegant and refined. We recommend decanting a few hours before serving.
