Product Description
Crafted from Cabernet Sauvignon blended with a small percentage of the Petit Verdot with which it is co-planted, “Il Rospo” is fermented and aged in concrete tanks, with no sulfur added during fermentation and only the tracest amount used at bottling. In the glass, it’s a deep ruby with garnet highlights at the rim, with an inviting nose of ripe black cherry, black and red currant, cassis, gingerbread, licorice, damp violets, pencil shavings, and a note of damp, smoky underbrush that hints at Sangiovese from Montalcino.
