Flavor profile

The original vintage notes emphasize balance between acidity and freshness.

Cellaring & drinking window

The title identifies a vintage, but an exact-bottle drinking window has not been verified. Ask us to confirm the bottle and its storage history before choosing a long-term cellar plan. Store unopened in darkness at a stable temperature around 55°F (13°C), away from vibration; keep natural-cork bottles on their side.

Pairing & serving

Pair with roast lamb, steak or aged Pecorino. Taste on opening and reassess after 30–60 minutes of air. Serve slightly cool, around 60–65°F (16–18°C). Taste before decanting; if it seems closed, try 20–30 minutes of air and taste again. Older or delicate bottles may need little aeration.

After opening & when to enjoy

Recork and refrigerate upright. Enjoy within about 3–4 days for best flavor, allowing each pour to warm slightly before serving.
