Medium garnet in color, aromas of red fruits and cassis are complemented by delicate hints of licorice, smoke, and caramel. The tannins in this wine are central to the mouth feel, yet they are neither astringent nor tight...in other words, a perfect example of the Neive style.
This wine pairs well with meat-based raviolis, mushroom-topped pork saltimbocca, and elegant filet mignon dishes.
