Then in December, the dried grapes are pressed and added to the rest of the wine before barrel fermentation and ageing for 5 months.Tasting Note
The Governo has notes of cassis and cherry fruit as well as aromatic herbs and woody hints, with a mid- palate richness and a savour balsamic finish.Product Reviews
