PRUNAIOLO 2016
PRUNAIOLO 2016
Produced from a careful selection of the best grapes from La Rosa vineyard, among which a part of the Sangiovese grapes (about 5%) is dried naturally for a short time and added to the must at a later stage. The maceration takes place over 12-15 days at a controlled temperature, using the foot of indigenous yeasts and manual punching-down. The ageing for 24 months takes place in barrels and casks.
TASTING NOTES
It has a ruby colour with garnet highlights. Aromas of ripe fruit, liquorice and roasted coffee. The palate expresses the strength of superb tannins, warm and enveloping with a persistent finish of roots and leather.
