Drought conditions and a thirty year low yield have pushed up the price of this wine, however it still represents value. Made from slightly dried grapes in the amarone style, it is a junior version of the Serpico. Lifted peppery spice leads into an herbaceous mix of blackberries, currants and cloves. The partial Amarone method produces hints of liquorice, tar and leather whilst remaining fresh and vibrant. The youthful tannin structure will evolve over the next few years to become soft, supple and smooth.
