Basilicata Rosso (Gina) – Red Wine
This I.G.T. wine is the perfect union between some of the most prominent autochthonous international vines such as: Aglianico, Montepulciano, Sangiovese and Merlot. This blend produces a young, elegant and well balanced wine. The color is ruby red with purple nuances. The bouquet is harmonious and distinct with undertones of dark berries. The taste is full and warm, pleasantly velvety and tannic.
