"An authentic and traditional family estate based in Frazione Annunziata, Tiziana Settimo focuses on classic winemaking with concrete fermentation with long submerged-cap maceration, and ageing in big oak vessels. The wine is tantalising on the nose, with light orange leaf and an intense spectrum of plum, strawberry, mint and tar in depth, with a whiff of cocoa powder. Fresh strawberry and cherry flavours are accompanied by hugely extracted tannins, with a slightly warming finish balanced by a long, intense mint note." - Aldo Fiordelli
