Grenache and Petit Verdot combine to make a wine characteristic of southern Tuscany, where these vine species find their natural destination in a blend of fruity fragrances with a full body. A deepish ruby red colour, rounded on the palate but with a certain measure of tannins which make it very lively, persistent and well-balanced.

Serve with grilled meats and semi-mature cheeses
