Pale salmon in color. On the nose the wine immediately asserts its Italian heritage with aromas of dusty earth and Mediterranean herbs layered over fresh cherries and tart cranberry. On the palate the wine shows a defined structure with bright acidity and brilliant depth of flavor. The finish is long and balanced.

A peppery style, with cherry and strawberry flavors underneath the spice notes. Elegant and long, with accents of earth and tobacco.

Sangiovese braised wild boar shoulder, Asiago polenta

This rich red is bursting with cherry, raspberry and spice flavors, matched to a bright structure. Medium bodied, with fine, velvety tannins.
