A blend of sangiovese, shiraz and cabernet, this is a complex makeup: six barrels were bled to concentrate the ensuing red wines. The result is this heady pink rose, in turn, wild-fermented and matured in older wood for 8 months. Brisk and on the cusp of savour over sweet sap, a melody of maraschino cherry, orange rind and raspberry skitter along a skein of vibrant acidity. A solid effort.
