Tasting Notes
In the glass, this wine shows a deep, насыщенный ruby tone with impressive concentration. The bouquet opens with balsamic notes, spice and violets, followed by blackberries, blackcurrants, and a touch of chocolate. On the palate, it is full-bodied and generous, with silky tannins that give the wine a refined, velvety feel. The finish is long and persistent, marked by fresh mint and dark fruit nuances. It already offers plenty of appeal now, but it should also reward additional bottle age with even greater complexity.

Production
Produced in Tuscany by Castello del Terriccio, this wine reflects the warm Mediterranean climate and the estate’s ability to craft structured, expressive reds from international varieties. Syrah and Petit Verdot bring depth, spice, and color, while careful vineyard selection and controlled vinification help preserve purity and balance.

Food & Serving

It also works well with aged hard cheeses and savory dishes featuring herbs and dark sauces. Serve at around 16–18°C and decant for about an hour if drinking young to allow the aromas and tannins to open fully.
