This wine is full-bodied, with firm tannins providing structure and great ageing potential. Perfectly complements red meat dishes or mature cheeses. Altogether, a marvellous testament to Italian viniculture.

Tasting Notes

Vignaferrovia is ruby red in color. Its nose is rich and complex. Notes of red fruit merge with hints of fig jam, dates and citrus marmalade; its bouquet is completed by floral aromas of lavender, delicate balsamic and iodized scents and light sensations of resin, sandalwood, chocolate and cinnamon. On the palate, its entry is soft, defined by silky tannins. Vignaferrovia is a refined, energetic and vibrant wine, characterized by excellent persistence and freshness.
