CASTELLO DI BOSSI ROSATO IGT

Pale salmon in color, Castello di Bossi Rosato bears resemblance to the rosé wines of southern France.  On the nose, however, it immediately asserts its Italian heritage with aromas of dusty earth and Mediterranean herbs layed over fresh cherries and tart cranberry.  On the palate the wine shows a defined structure with bright acidity and brilliant depth of flavor.  The finish is long and balanced.

This rosato wine is incredibly versatile.  It is wonderful with full-flavored fish grilled simply or served with a relish of eggplant caponata. Other ideal matches include herb-roasted chicken, a thick-cut veal chop, or braised pot roast, as well as medium to sharp cheeses.
