Riserva

This Riserva is a selection of the property's oldest vines - over 40 years old - on a patch of white clay. According to owner Flavio Fanti, this parcel typically gives wines with more elegance than power. 

Aged in Slavonian oak casks of 7-20hl, it hints at pressed violets, mint and tobacco. It's somewhat aloof and linear on the palate, but with time the rigid tannins should relax their grip, allowing the dark, earthy core to unfold. It holds its alcohol well.
