Dark, ruby-red color with violet highlights. Intense and fragrant bouquet with a rich array of red and black fruit aromas and flavors. Harmonious and velvety on the palate. Great balance and structure.
Excellent with grilled or roasted meats, game and cheeses.
"Dusty garnet color. Aromas and flavors of salted blueberry compote, peach yogurt, chocolate covered raspberry, and coconut with a round, tangy, dryish medium-to-full body and a warming, refreshing, medium-long finish revealing accents of cocoa nibs, red, black, and purple fruit, dried herbs, and baking spice with coating tannins. Truly representative of an Italian classic; pair this dark brooder with braised beef or boar."
