A deep ruby red, with attractive purplish reflections, highlighted by the bead of lively bubbles. Persistent fruit salad notes mingle with hints of aromatic herbs, thyme and rosemary in particular. The rich, complex bouquet offers alternating dominant notes. Morello cherries provide the leitmotiv, accompanied by other swiftly changing fruit sensations. There are also curious fresh and piquant tones, distinctly reminiscent of ginseng and ginger. Nicely tangy, Cantolibero balances its rounded tannins with pleasant acidity and leaves the palate dry and cleansed. There is an attractive delicately tannic sensation that seems to attack one’s incisors on the finish, very similar to the unmistakeable sensation of biting into the skin of a Grasparossa grape.

An Ideal accompaniment for cold cuts and all fatty and succulent dishes, especially if pork-based. Excellent with soups, pasta with meat sauce, boiled meats and cheeses that are not overly mature. A versatile wine for drinking throughout a meal, it can also be enjoyed as an aperitif together with canapés, open sandwiches and little, intensely-flavoured hors d’oeuvres.
