Nerello Mascalese

Nerello Mascalese

€8,80

Nerello Mascalese is a wine with a very dark ruby red color and an aromatic but delicate perfume. On the palate it is intense, quite tannic and elegant. It is a full-bodied wine with an important, rich, structured and acidic taste at the right point. On the palate mainly hints of red berry fruit prevail with interesting spicy aftertaste. Thanks to a modest amount of polyphenols, it appears transparent to the eye. Nerello Mascalese wine goes perfectly with mushroom-based first courses, better if porcini, then with risotto, tagliatelle or ravioli, or with meat-based sauces; it is also a perfect wine to pair with mixed grilled meats, including pork sausage, red meat or horse meat. It can be served as a wine for combinations for an aperitif along with cured meats, aged cheeses or with an intense flavor. Soft, enveloping, full-bodied.
