There is a joyful buoyance to the fruit as a blood orange juiciness streams through the palate. Tannins are fine, finessed and intricately embedded. As seductive as this is now, it promises more to come. The estate's Riservas were born with the new generation – Bruno’s children Luisa and Francesco. The latter is now at the winemaking helm. Made from two selected parcels, this sees a whole-berry fermentation with 50 days of maceration. Ageing is in 16-hectolitre French oak casks.
