General Description and Longevity

The Selvarossa Reserve is the result of careful selection and prolonged aging aimed at excellence. Thanks to its remarkable structure, the presence of **voluminous and elegant tannins**, and the aging in barrique, it has an excellent aging potential and can continue to refine in the bottle for **8-10 years and beyond**, evolving beautifully into tertiary notes. The palate is full, enveloping, and vibrant with freshness and saline sapidity.
