Medium bright ruby. High-pitched aromas of red cherry, blood orange, botanical herbs, tar and stony minerality on the fragrant nose. Initially plush on entry, then fine-grained, sappy and sharply delineated, displaying a light touch to the red berry and spicy flavors. Closes with ripe tannins and bright floral reminders. Winemaker Cristiana Tiberio has a knack for pulling out tannins from Montepulciano grapes that are finer than most
