This most representative label from the Boscarelli Estate is also the most emblematic wine, mostly unchanged in composition and vinification since it was first made in 1968. This Nobile wine has great structure, complexity and length but has maintained an elegant freshness. The tannins and mineral quality endow this wine with great aging potential, so it can be enjoyed several years from now.
