Concentration, plush, liqueur.
Made from partially (parziale) dried Corvina Veronese, Rondinella, Oseleta and Merlot grapes. These grapes have been set out on traditional wooden trays to dry, thereby increasing intensity and resulting in additional weight and concentration.
The aromas here are plush; cherry jam, plum cake, sweet chocolate, leather and espresso. It has a supple weight with plenty of mocha, vanilla and dried cherries - almost liqueur-like. Good overall balance, length and freshness.
Pair: aged Italian cheeses, game or pastas with hearty ragu.
Pairs great with Gone Crackers Olive Oil & Cracked Pepper
