Wine tasting notes
An example of how a red wine can be at the same time structured, elegant and typical. The nose, after an initial reduction, opens on intense, red ripe fruit, made precious by animal and wet earth notes. On the palate it is mainly juicy, long, with tannins and freshness in perfect harmony without any imperfection or useless frills.
 
Food match
Well structured first courses with meat sauces, meat casserole, red meat, game, extra mature cheese, spicy and aged cold cuts.
