Tenuta Colombarola Gandinaia 2016

Deep ruby red with light garnet reflections. Fruity aroma of slightly dried black berries (Marasca cherry, elderberry, blueberry and black currant), with a pleasant hint of mountain strawberry compote; floral scents (carnation, violet, dried red rose) with spicy notes of aromatic blonde tobacco, liquorice and a slightly balsamic hint of pepper mixture; light vanilla-woody aroma delightfully balanced and pleasant. Excellent structure; elegant and harmonious with a good balance between alcohol perception, smoothness and acidity; great pleasantness and roundness; dense, smooth and well-blended tannins. Aftertaste: hints of black fruits and blond tobacco with a long finish rich in vanilla and spicy notes. Perfect with first courses of the Emilian cuisine (lasagna, tortellini, cannelloni), game (salmis), red meat (excellent with grilled and braised meat) and hard or semi-hard cheese.
