Deep, ruby ??red color with a high intensity.
The bouquet is rich and complex, and the striking Sangiovese fruit aroma is in perfect balance with the oak used. The palette shows a tannin-rich structure that helps shape the rich body of this wine. The finish is long and harmonious and gives a pleasant feeling of warmth and richness.

About Ferrero
The Ferrero wine estate is located on the Podere Pascena, about halfway between Sant’Angelo in Colle and Sant’Angelo Scalo, two small villages on the Southern slopes of Montalcino, Sienna, Tuscany. It is a small domain (5.5 ha) established at the end of the 90s. The center of the domain is a traditional stone-built farmhouse from 1900, which was restored in the 1980s. The ground floor, the stable and the barn were converted into a vinification room and maturing cellar.
