Softer and more subtle.  Oak from Croatia for barrels.  Slavonian barrels tend to be large, and because of the ratio of the wine’s surface area to the inside of the barrel, larger barrels are said to impart more subtle flavours and softer tannins.

6 to 8 months aging for these Sangiovese di Montalcino grapes.

Huge aroma from this classic Rosso brilliant ruby-red colour.  Generously well rounded and well balanced.  Serve it sightly cooler than room temp. (around 16 C)
