La Stoppa's aged in barrel blend of Barbara and Bonarda, from their oldest vines, with potting soil and leather aromas. The long maceration in this wine gives high tannins that beg for earthy, rich, fatty foods.

A blend of two French grapes (Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon) and one Italian one (Sangiovese). Soft-bodied, with an oaky profile balancing red and dark fruit in a moderate acidity.
