theGaggiarone

Gaggiarone Vigne Vecchie

Deep ruby red. The olfactory nuances are fruity, spicy, a bit toasted: strawberry, blueberry, raspberry, juniper berry, gentian, ground coffee, cinnamon and clove. The mouthfeel is fresh, tasty, balanced thanks to velvety softness that realigns vigorous tannins. Intense and long almond finish.

TO PAIR WITH:
tagliata di fassona piemontese
