FOOD MATCHING NOTE: 

Described by Italians as a "vino da meditazione", this is the perfect companion for late night ponderings in an easy chair, either on one's own or with a very quiet friend. In terms of food matching, the fact that the Bertani style is drier

than many modern show-winning competitors means that it is very food friendly and will pair anything from ham to steak.

TASTING NOTE:  

A deep garnet red colour witnesses the long barrel ageing. The first impression on the nose is of fresh black cherry aromas, leading into notes of maraschino cherry and plum. Immense depth and complexity on the palate: dried fruit.
