Detailed info
Founded by Gerardo Cesari in 1936, the business is still run by the Cesari family. This blend of Corvina and Merlot undergoes a slight drying period on treillis (appassimento) to get better sugar concentration. The result is a full-bodied wine with well-marked fruit where flavours of preserved cherries, cooked fruits, dried flowers and sandalwood shine.
