Umberto Cesari
This wine is a bright, ruby color tending toward garnet, with a bouquet highlighted by mountain flowers and explosive fruitiness. The taste is rich, smooth, dry, and slightly tannic with a harmonious, long finish. Enjoy With: This wine goes great with any of the glorious meat based dishes Bologna is noted for. These include dishes based on Prosciutto of Parma, Lasagna Verde, and Parmigiano Reggiano Cheese. The wine is also ideal with duck, rabbit, highly seasoned poultry, and steaks & chops.
Wine Enthusiast
Wild berries and bramble open the nose of this garnet-colored Riserva Sangiovese from Central Italy (with 15% Cabernet Sauvignon). Background notes include spice and vanilla seed and the wine has a tart, bitter cherry finale. Pair it with informal home-cooked meals and pasta.
