This elegant, Sangiovese-based Rosso comes from the rolling hills surrounding Bevagna. Sagrantino contributes refined tannins and intense fruit, while silky Merlot and structured Cabernet Sauvignon round out the harmonious palate. After three years of aging—including at least 15 months in Slavonian oak—the Riserva is a seamless and sophisticated bottling. Tasting notes. Color: Intense ruby red.
