Sensory profile

Deep ruby red colour. Intense aromas of wild cherry, plum and black cherry, elegantly fused with mellow tones of oak. A wine of excellent structure, full-bodied yet elegant and balanced. “Ser Balduzio” is long on the palate. A wine to accompany elaborate dishes, rich and complex. Not filtered may contain sediment.
