Sensory Features: Deep ruby red, clear and intense. The nose expresses a pleasant bouquet of licorice and berries. Fruity notes then open to a full and robust taste, characterized by a tannic component wrapped in the aromatic texture of the grape variety. It closes with a finish of excellent persistence, on the fruit.
Grape Variety: 100% Montepulciano
Vineyards: The selected Montepulciano grapes are grown in the eight acre San Clemente Vineyard located on the hills of Bolognano, part of the Zaccagnini Estate. Single vineyard wine.
Best served: Assertive, full-flavored “country style” cooking such as: venison or rabbit stew; ossobuco; roast leg of lamb; spaghetti puttanesca; pasta with sausage, pepper and onions; roast duck with green peppercorn sauce.
