Note di degustazione Di un bel color rosso rubino carico alla vista e introdurre al naso sentori importanti di piccoli frutti selvatici, e macchia mediterranea sostenuti da una deliziosa speziatura e balsamicità finale. In bocca è pieno e rotondo, di grande eleganza, con tannini evidenti ma finissimi, grande freschezza ed un ritorno degli aromi speziati. Molto persistente il finale. Abbinamenti Un vino importante per occasioni speciali, accompagna piatti saporiti, specie di carne, come anche formaggi a lunga stagionatura ma da il meglio con la selvaggina. Da provare con i pici al ragù di cinghiale.
