"On the palate you are greeted upfront by a luscious array of dark cherry, strawberry and red stone fruits, with hints of blueberries. There is a good balance of savouriness with a hint of dried herbs. A well balanced acid structure supports the wine while complementing the interesting and persistent sour cherry and savoury chestnut finish. Firm and slightly chalky tannins from the Nebbiolo are slightly drying and are complemented by fruit sweetness making it an ideal food wine. Enjoy slightly below room temperature with a tomato based pasta or gourmet pizza."
