Appearance & Nose

The complex bouquet hints at the wine's depth and age, with a whisper of earthy truffle emerging as it breathes.

02The palate is a tapestry of ripe dark fruit, finely woven with firm, yet elegant tannins and a vibrant acidity that lends a remarkable freshness. Its lingering finish offers a sophisticated interplay of savory minerality and a touch of licorice, showcasing the profound character of this Gran Selezione.
