Tasting notes

Deep ruby red colour. The nose, unmistakeable but elegant, expresses the complexity of floral aromas and ripe red fruit, liquorice, vanilla and chocolate. The palate is full and rich with soft, velvety tannins. The after-smell is generously persistent. The most authentic expression of the terroir of “Brolio”.
