Method & Production
Tasting notes
This is a fruit-focussed, fleshy expression of Prugnolo Gentile. It shows intense dark fruits on the nose of black and red cherry, ripe blackcurrents and juicy berries. The use of stainless steel and exclusion of oxygen in the winemaking process has ensured the wine stays fresh, with a bright acidity that lifts depth and intensity of the luscious fruit flavors.
Food matching
Excellent with robust, rich pasta dishes.
