From the winery:
"Description: deep garnet red in color, with a delicate bouquet showing the cherry and violet note characteristic of the varietals; subtle wood tones complement its full round fruit flavors. Compact tannins and an agreeable acidity carry this traditional South Tyrolean wine through to its long finish.Today we're going back to one of our favorite, under-appreciated regions, Alto Adige. We've previously covered a number of delicious wines in this series:
Food pairing: excellent with braised or grilled beef, lamb, or game, as well as cheese.
