Pizza, pasta (especially with tomato or cream sauce), hearty vegetable dishes, and even some meats like charcuterie, sausages, and burgers.
On the nose, the wine bursts with aromas of ripe blackberries, plums, and wild cherries, interwoven with floral notes of violets and subtle hints of almond, licorice, and a touch of spice. A faint earthy undertone adds depth and complexity to the bouquet.
The palate is medium-bodied, with soft tannins and a refreshing acidity that creates a harmonious balance. Flavors of juicy dark fruits are complemented by nuances of black tea, crushed herbs, and a slight mineral edge. The finish is clean and lively, showcasing the varietal’s signature vibrancy and finesse.
