Tasting Note

Intense ruby red hues. A well-structured, well-balanced, persistent wine. An ample nose profile of blackberry, blueberry and blackcurrant notes, hints of red pepper and liquorice, nuanced with balsamic cues. A rich, stylish palate with a long finale. Superb with sweet and sour dishes, mature cheese, roast and barbecued meat, game, and traditional Abruzzo fare.
