Riserva

A selection from the family’s oldest planting in Brunate, upwards of 80 years old, the Riserva is aged in barriques, with a small percentage of new wood. Intensely fragrant from start to finish, the 2020 is simply captivating. It is immediately likable with admirable depth beyond its surface. Aromas of cinnamon, clove and tobacco swirl around dried red cherry. The generosity of fruit is hemmed in by finessed, grainy tannins. These exert plenty of grip without taking over. Complexities of mint tea and ginger root poke through before the salty finish.
