The blending is done before the aging phase starts.

THE WINE - Color: shining ruby red. Bouquet: fruity notes of plum and blackberry and floral aromas of elderflower and violet; final hints of sweet spices (vanilla and cinnamon). Taste and aftertaste: round and velvety, our Rossodivino is particularly interesting for its well-balanced minerality; the aftertaste is elegant and pleasantly lasting.
SERVING TEMPERATURE: 16-18° C
