A deep and elegant red, born from the renowned Chronicon vineyard in the splendid, breezy and vocated setting of the Casauria Valley.
Brilliant red of fine consistency, with iridescent violet hues. The olfactory bouquet is fine and complex: it opens with flowers (violet), cherry and balsamic hints, extending to white pepper, vanilla and tertiary notes of undergrowth. The sip reveals a full body, supported and balanced by extremely fine-grained tannins.
Ideally enhances risottos, rich pastas and dishes flavoured with bold, well-seasoned sauces. Serving temperature: 15-17°C.
Destemming and crushing serve as a prelude to a submerged-cap maceration with temperature-controlled fermentation for two weeks. The process concludes with ageing in fine oak vats for 6-9 months.
The soils are medium-textured tending to clay with west exposure. Training system: awning and espalier. The harvest is carried out at the end of September.
