Grown at our original Montemiletto vineyard in Irpinia, Campania, this wine was historically the favoured wine of the Roman empire. This fresh, dry red is deeply concentrated, high in tannin, revealing an abundance of black fruit, tar, and recognisable earthy flavours. If able to resist being drunk, this ancient wine can be long-lived and worth cellaring for that special occasion.
A broad bouquet, characterised by varietal and tertiary notes including violet flowers, morello cherries and tobacco. The taste is full with an elegant presence of spicy notes. The finish is long and savoury.
