FOOD MATCHING NOTE:

Heavy and flavourful enough to hold its own against a variety of game stews and roasted red meets. Also pairs excellently with long-seasoned cheeses.

TASTING NOTE:

The nose is bursting with fruit, followed by fresh floral notes and pepper. After prolonged ageing, the wine offers more evolved nuances of fruit preserved in alcohol and aromatic herbs. The sweetness is balanced by acidity and tannins, creating an approachable wine of great finesse. The wine is named after the founder, Giovanni Allegrini, who chose this as his preferred wine.
