Doline Nero di Troia

Description

Tasting Notes

Clear, bright red ruby in colour. Intense and quite complex. Notes of red fruit jam and redcurrant, floral notes of wild berries and violet. Slight hints of pepper and almost a citric whisper. It gives a dry, warm and soft mouthfeel. Quite fresh and savory, with lively tannin. It’s a full-bodied wine, round, intense and persistent.

Recommended Pairings

Perfect for succulent and fatty dishes, savory, spiced too and with a bitterish tendency. Dishes with moderate persistence in flavor and smell. Semi-hard cheeses, grilled white meat. Stuffed pasta with creamy cheese.
