WineDiva's Review

Made from the regional varieties of Corvina, Rondinella and Molinara this charming weekday red leads with smoked cherries and vanilla, some chocolate, plum and sweet spice and is rounded out with saddle leather and cigarbox notes. It is supple and very fresh - fllavours of bittersweet cocoa and spice are layered with juicy red fruit. Good substance, nice brightness.
Perfect for tomato pastas, medium-firm Italian cheeses and roasted meat.


 
Recommended Pairings
Rich Meats , Cheese - Semi Hard / Medium , Italian Food, Tomatoes and Tomato Sauces
