The result of continuous research in the vineyard and cellar, Villa Gemma Riserva is made from 100% Montepulciano grapes harvested by hand from a single vineyard with a very high plant density. Powerful and elegant, it reveals great expressive power and extraordinary aging capacity, with full and explosive aromas that evolve in a surprising way over the years. An ideal choice for meat and game main courses or mature cheeses, it amazes at the end of the meal if accompanied by a dark chocolate dessert.
