    Ho acquistato sfruttando l’Offerta 24 bottiglie con spedizione inclusa personalizzando un pò l’assortimento. Ordine concluso con semplicità e vini arrivati in 4 giorni.
    Il coda di volpe è stato il primo vino aperto. Beh che dire… favoloso, ben strutturato, perciò meritava una recensione. Complimenti all’Azienda Vinicola Sannino, conosciuta lo scorso anno al vinitaly, che mi ha confermato la qualità dei suoi vini.
