- you prioritise rapport qualité/prix (8,5 vs 7,6) : At €7.81, with a crossed-out price of €9.26, the bottle sits clearly below the usual price of a distinguished DOCG: a very favorable ratio.
- you prioritise polyvalence à table (8,2 vs 7,8) : Precise pairings (carni rosse, arrosti, aged cheeses), red fruit profile, spices and balsamic notes, served at 16-18 °C: a versatile wine.
