Felsina Fontalloro

Felsina Fontalloro

Rich, deep, brilliant ruby in colour with a spiced nose and savoury notes of tobacco and wet earth. On the palate, it is powerful and concentrated, with a hefty weight of ripe tannins and great structure supporting the autumnal fruit and spice character. Tremendous length, with notes of blackberries and tobacco on the finish.
