Angheli 2011
Bordeaux blend with a Sicilian soul, aged for about twelve months in second passage French oak barriques and tonneaux, and at least two years in the bottlle. Angheli 2011 conquers with its pleasantness and elegance. On the nose fruity notes of sour black cherries and plums blend with fl owery scents of violets and spicy tones. On the palate we fi nd the fruit again, enlivened by a hint of nutmeg. A round wine with soft tannins and pleasant persistence.
Angheli & The Leopard: Angelica, interpreted in the fi lm by Claudia Cardinale, is a woman of character, fascinating and determined, who can thoroughly interpret the balance of softness and seduction of Angheli

It is aged for about 14 months in French oak barriques and tonneaux, new and second passage, and then in the bottle for about 24 months. A ruby red color, Tancredi is a complex and elegant wine, with a deep bouquet, where the red fruit notes, especially marasca cherries, merge with sweet graphite scents, followed by balsamic and spicy hints (tobacco, bitter cocoa and liquorice).
