Description
The Grimaldis own two plots in Ambrogio, but use only the prime piece in the middle of the slope with forty-year-old vines for this wine. The other, lesser parcel is used in the Camilla blend. The south-west-facing vineyard delivers a ripe wine, with scented silky floral rose notes, and pretty strawberry and dark cherry fruit, along with hints of liquorice. There is a lively energy, a lifted, ethereal quality framed by ripe, rich tannins, driving to a long, smooth finish with a saline tang.
