La Valentina Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Riserva Bellovedere 2012

CHARACTERISTICS
Deep ruby red with inky purple stripes. The bouquet reveals flavors of dark plum, blackberry nectar and aromatic herbs, complicated by coffee and cocoa. At once dense but fresh, with noble and powerful tannins, finishes long and clean, with lovely lingering violet perfume. The final is long and clean with mineral notes exalting its vivacity, power and clearness.

FOOD PAIRING
Braised and cooked meat, game bird, wild boar and long aged cheese.
