This red wine has the same grape composition as the non-barrel aged, namely Cabernet Sauvignon grapes (85-100%), Sangiovese and/or Merlot grapes (0-15%).
Colli di Scandiano e di Canossa Cabernet Sauvignon Riserva DOC has a ruby red color and a typical scent, with light herbal hints. The taste, velvety and with tannins, is balanced by a light touch of herbs and wood from the barrel. This is a full-bodied wine.
The minimum mandatory aging period is 2 years, of which at least 6 months in the barrels, starting on November 1st of the harvesting year.
This wine is best enjoyed with rather refined and ambitious dishes.

Did you know?
That Italy in 2011 was the worlds largest wine producer?
The Molise region has historically been so neglected that you can hardly find the origin of its name, beyond that it's believed to have originated from the Middle Ages, where a Normann family, the Moulins, owned large portions of the area as a county.
