After traveling the world through multiple harvests, gaining experience and anecdotes, he decided to blend everything he learned throughout his career with the teachings of his mentor and father, Jorge Riccitelli. Thus, in 2009, Riccitelli Wines was born. The compelling, pure nose presents notes of violet and lavender with fresh plum and hints of herbs. The easygoing palate is fresh and juicy with refined tannins, good earth, and a flavorful flow. An inviting, easy drinking red.
