This wine might be best summarized as a cigar friendly wine. Rich ripe notes of dark berries with aromas of forest floor, herbs and a touch of dark cocoa. The grape is a native of the Alpine region of Alto Aldige (North Eastern Italy) producing concentrated wines with a firm structure. Decant or just take your time sipping this wine, allowing it to open in the glass. If pairing with food, it will do well with all kinds of braised dishes.
