Composed with noble precision Ridolfo 2016 presents an expressive blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Pugnitello offering dark blackberry and dried plum intertwined with rustic sour cherry and pepper. The structure is refined yet powerful, with integrated eucalyptus and licorice lifting the rich fruit and a firm acidity that frames its complexity.
