Somm Note
Winemaker Notes
The nose is immediately elegant, intense, enveloping with notes of cherry jam, and it brings its experience of review in the morello cherry notes then the roasting emerge. On the palate, it is soft, persuasive, but never tiring thanks to the area peculiar acidity. Inviting and easily drinkable.
Ideal with first courses with a strong flavor, such as risotto with porcini mushrooms or pasta with game ragout. It goes well with
second courses of meat and aged cheese.
Blend: 50% Corvina, 20% Corvinone, 15% Rondinella, 15% Other Red Grapes

James Suckling
Aromas of blackcurrants, nuts and lightly bitter Alpine herbs follow through to a medium to full body with fresh fruit, fine and silky tannins and a medium finish. Squeaky clean and easy-drinking. Nicely done.
