This red wine uses the same grape composition as the unaged Delia Nivolelli Pignatello (Perricone) (85-100%), with permission to add local red grapes (0-15%).
The Pignatello grape, a tannin-rich affair, gives an intense, ruby red color that after a few years progresses to orange-red. The aroma is vinous and characteristic. A dry and well-tasting red wine, with a light tannic aftertaste, though still smooth.
The mandatory aging period is 2 years, and can at the earliest start January 1 the year after the harvest.

Italy extends over 10 latitudes – from continental climate to subtropical climate?
Umbria is called ”cuore verde d'Italia” (The green hearts of Italy). The beautiful, green hills that characterize the region’s landscape are on par with Tuscany’s beauty. The same is true of the talent for wine production.
