Plum, black cherry and ripe red fruit are layered with vanilla, cinnamon and savoury spice, while silky texture and grainy tannins give the wine plenty of shape. Full-bodied and immediately appealing, it is an easy choice for drinkers who enjoy bold, smooth Italian reds.

The palate is soft and enveloping, with concentrated flavour, satisfying acidity and a persistent finish.
