Well balanced and harmonious, with a very pleasant taste and sweetness due to the velvety and ripe tannins. Aromas of sour black cherry, prune, balsamic with sweet spices, cinnamon, and cloves. End with a long persistence. Pairs well with traditional cold cuts: salami and matured sheep and cow cheeses. Roasted white and red meats, pasta with traditional game meat sauces or heavy creamy sauces.
