Description

Sensory impressions

A dark, ruby red colour with garnet hues, it has a wide, complex and refined nose, almost volcanic, with notes of cherry, maraschino cherries and dried figs along with a strong touch of dark chocolate, white pepper and spices. A rich, powerful palate with lively tannins; its high alcohol is well balanced by an acid note and minerality typical of these wines, which give a long and persistent closure.

Recommended food pairings

A few years of cellaring make it the ideal complement for the most luscious meat and seasoned dishes, such as hare “à la Royale” and roast snipe. At a riper age, it is best savoured with some aged cheese, such as Castelmagno or Bitto.
