A rich, opulent example of Perricone with ripe black fruits, wet, tilled earth and cocoa powder marking the aromatics. The palate is velveteen, marked with a rich concentration of fruit, Damson plums, chocolate-covered cherry and mocha powder, giving way to soy, smoked meat and bay leaf flavours. A tasty, luxurious Perricone that shows the variety's stand-alone capacity.
