Dense dark core and a mature ruby rim. The wine offers a mature perfume of ripe dark fruit, cassis, dried cherry, leather, tobacco and wood. The palate is still rather youthful with a tannic backbone, dried fruit flavours tobacco and leather with some wood and a long finish, sweet fruit but still a young tannic bite, could still age and improve.
Producer Information
While the Giusti Wine winery was established less than 20 years ago, the Giusti family has roots in the region since the 1600s and have a history of winemaking dating back to that time. Ermenegildo Giusti began building his winery when he purchased 2 hectares of 1945 plantings of the Dal Col vineyard in Treviso, Veneto. Treviso is a magical place for wine growing, offering a wealth of soil types, slopes, vistas and a great cultural heritage. While doing their best to preserve and commemorate the past, Giusti has made newly acquired estates welcoming and alluring for visitors and winelovers. Today, the winery has more than has approximately 100 hectares of land, 70% of which is planted with vines. This land is divided among 10 different estates which lie between the land on the Nervesa plain, which was home to the very first vineyards in ancient times, and the Montello hills, all found throughout the Prosecco DOC territory. Giusti now owns about 14 per cent of the land in Italys designated Prosecco region, making him one of the largest private landowners in the area.
