Producer's comment:
Luigi Bosca De Sangre is a garnet red wine with violet hues that gets its great complexity and structure from the limestone soil. This strong and robust blend, with great intensity shows exuberant aromas of black fruits and spices. It is full-bodied and fleshy in the mouth, large volume, sweet tannins and velvety texture. A long finish and nice to the palate.
