Tasting notes Color: dark but bright ruby red, with violet reflections; Nose: generous with olfactory sensations typical of the variety that recall the red plum, the morello cherry, notes of Mediterranean scrub crossed by very pleasant nuances of black pepper; Palate: the aromatic impression is also found in the taste, with a harmonic and soft structure. The pleasant softness does not subdue its exuberant but balanced character, with docile and lively tannins; Food pairings: a rich wine is combined with full-bodied and tasteful dishes such as cavati with pork sauce, meat sauce or baked pasta with both meat and vegetables. For the main courses there is plenty of choice, good on red meat alive with fire but also on lean and braised fakes, but also with exotic dishes such as cherry rice and chicken. Excellent with fresh and medium-aged cheeses, not just cow's milk.
