Tasting notes
Olfactory examination
Ripe black cherries and marasca cherries stand out, clear and genteel. They are fallowed by a triumph of small, will red-berried fruit: blackcurrants, blackberries, and ripe raspberry, lifted by a nuance of dark chocolate, toasted coffee beans and pink pepper.
Gustatory examination
The pinot noir bursts through with all its elegance, giving a well-defined and dry touch. An explosion of juicy ripe fruit of Corvina is exalted by the extra-fine perlage. There follows a succession of wonderful tones of woodland undergrowth, cyclamen and wild berries. Chinotto and dark cocoa complete the rich embrace.
Pairing
Red meats, game and aged cheeses.
Serve at 8° C. Pouring the wine into a crystal decanter is recommended in order to appreciate its intense personality
