Palate & Finish
02On the palate, the wine unfolds with a firm yet elegant structure, revealing layers of dark fruit, earthy undertones, and a sophisticated minerality that lingers beautifully. The finish is long and persistent, a testament to the Sangiovese's noble character and the meticulous winemaking. This distinguished Riserva is a perfect companion to slow-cooked lamb ragù, grilled Florentine steak, aged Pecorino cheese, or a rich wild boar stew. It also shines alongside a classic osso buco.
