Grape Variety

Cesanese di Affile

Producer

The Winetraders

The Cesanese variety has long been grown in Lazio, to the east of Rome. This is a high scoring wine with intense aromas of black cherries and blackberries. It is rich and smooth with concentrated flavours of black fruits and liquorice. More savoury and dark fruit flavours emerge in the glass, and it has a fine tannin structure and poise. Grapes were picked in October with fermentation on skins for 15 days at 25°C.
