Ripasso is the fuller
Contadi Castaldi Brut is a delightful Franciacorta
Fine tannins float across the palate
it shows well-developed dark berries
Deliciously sweet but balanced by the refreshing backbone of Assyrtiko

All of them combined with tertiary hints of dough, nuts and spice resulting from the oak ageing. An intense and complex palate, full of tension, making it softer and longer
