Tasting Notes

A fine example of Emilia Romagna winemaking, this Gutturnio DOC reflects generations of local expertise. Its 14.5% alcohol content underpins a rich, muscular structure. Crafted from Barbera 60%, Croatina (Bonarda) 40%, this wine expresses the unique terroir characteristics. The palate shows depth and structure, with a finish that lingers pleasantly. The fruit is sourced from vineyards on vines of 40 years old, on medium-textured soil clay. Vinification: maceration for 15-20 days. The wine is aged 7 months, in part in barriques and in part in steel, then at least 6 months in glass. A wine embodying Emilia Romagna's easy-drinking, food-loving character.
