2023 Collecapretta 'Rosato di Ciliegiolo' Umbria IGT, Italy
$35.00
Ciliegiolo grapes. A wine with deep generosity, sunny, warm and welcoming, it expresses flowers, malt and gingerbread in addition to the recurring earthy accent. In the mouth it has a vigorous and welcoming tactility, the finish is creamy and broad... its emollient capacity allows it to regulate even the most difficult dishes to match, think of spicy foods (all of them) and oriental spicy cuisine or raw meat.
