- New
Broad and embracing on the nose, with hints of citrus fruits and red black berries as well as spicy. On the palate, it is fruity and full-bodied with intense tannins.
Reference: BINVAL22
Deep and complex on the nose, with notes of iris, citrus and black berries, rounded off with elegant balsamic notes. It lingers in the mouth, developing gradually with a tannic weave of rare finesse. The ultimate expression of Vallocaia Sangiovese.
