Tasting notes:
Very deep ruby red hue, almost impenetrable, which can get brilliant garnet highlights over time. Notes of ripe red fruits, cherries in spirits and a characteristic heading vinous scent make its nose really charming. In mouth we have again intense aromas of ripe fruits together with hints of spices and tobacco. It is a structured and well bodied wine, which covers all the mouth thanks to its velvety tannic astringency.
Perfect for elaborate dishes typical of the Apulian tradition, lamb, pork and seasoned cheeses.
Tasting notes:
It shows an enticing nose of mineral, incense, spice box, balsamic, black and blue fruits with a greater depth and volume, and is a plush, layered, opulent package. Give this promising effort 2-3 years to fill out.
Rice, pasta, (noodles, spaghetti, macaroni), vegetables, mushroom, stewed meat, sausage, pork, roast meat, red and/or white meat with sauces, grilled meat, short or medium cured cheeses.
Tasting notes:
It exhibits greater aromatic complexity, richness with mineral and blueberry notes leading to a savory and spicy wine nicely balanced and very easy to drink.
