Wild cherry and licorice surge forward with impressive depth, joined by cedar, leather and savory spice. The hallmark Valtellina combination of intensity and grace is on full display. Concentrated yet transparent, with polished tannins that frame a persistent, mineral-laced finish. Classic Sassella showing beautiful development.
