Nose: Dark fruits on the nose.
Palate: On the palate it is fresh and elegant, full bodied, displaying subtle notes of barrel ageing. This dark red wine has very attractive aromas of ripe fruit and berries
Pairings: Excellent with beef, pasta, lamb or even deer.The Italian version offers black currants, blueberries and plums backed by pencil shaving oak, exotic spices and dried herbs. smoke and sweet spices. There’s good depth of flavour and no shortage of complexity, yet there’s real finesse as well in this medium-bodied red. A refreshing change, and a great candidate for a blind tasting.
93 pts - Ken Gargett (Wine Pilot)Teroldego is a variety indigenous to the northeast regions of Italy. There are a couple of local examples, but they are few and far between, so if you want to see what this variety can do, you really need to go to the source. This one sees twelve months maturation in French oak barrels. Under Diam. The colour is a vibrant yet opaque maroon. The nose reveals notes of blackberries, black cherries, coffee beans, chocolate, dried herbs and bay leaves. The wine is fresh, of medium weight and with juicy flavours, through to fine, powdery tannins. There is good length here and the wine can be enjoyed anytime over the next decade. Lots to like. Very much worth exploring.
