Aged in Slavonian oak for at least 3 years, this Sassella Riserva is super elegant. The nose offers a complexity of aromas beautifully intermingled: prune, mocha, cherries, truffle, and rose petal plus a touch of spice. On the palate it reaches all corners of your mouth with a medium to full body, velvety smooth tannins, and clean, balanced acidity. Finishes with exceptional length and depth of flavour. Robust and austere, this wine may be enjoyed now or stored for years to come.
