Description
The noble, celebrated Leopardi family have been making wine since 1500, and are famed for low volume, supreme quality, limited release wines. Our buyers met recently with the present Count, Pierfrancesco at his lavish, centuries-old Palazzo, and persuaded him to create a red exclusively for us!

Using succulent Montepulciano and cherry-scented Sangiovese, Leopardi winemakers linked up with the Trophy-winning Moncaro cellar for this new star red, which displays all the vivid fruit quality of Italy's exceptional 2004 vintage. A deliciously moreish red of great charm - an astonishing buying coup, and an amazing bargain to boot!

Bright ruby red. Intense red fruit and floral aromas. Gentle, juicy, fresh and well-balanced, its red berry, plum and cherry flavours make it ideal with dishes from pork and veal to ravioli and lasagne.
