Altavilla della Corte Red Igt 2006 Firriato
This is, in our opinion, the best version ever derived from our winemaking
passion and the love with which we prepare our wines. It has a
beautifully intense, deep ruby red colour, with a rare aroma from which
one notes strawberries, black currants, and blueberries that are
wonderfully fused togheter. The palate is fragrant, soft, enveloping. A
wine of great standing! |
