Riserva

In the 2013 vintage, Strada al Sasso was not yet a Gran Selezione (the classification was introduced for the first time in the same year). Instead, it was classified as a Riserva. The vintage was very classic, being considered more cool than warm, not particularly rich yet balanced, and of great complexity. Indeed, this 2013 is complex with a wide range of tertiary aromas including tobacco, black truffle, liquorice, leather, and earthy minerality in depth. Both nose and palate are dominated by elegant red cherry fruit, with chalky yet ripe tannins bound tightly to chewy acidity, leading to a clean finish. A wine that's close to mature but not tiring.
