A fabulous wine to pair with an amazing home cooked coq au vin for Sunday lunch with family & friends
A fabulous wine, an intense Forest fruit flavour, with a touch of something wild and leafy about it, but not as hard core "tar & roses" as its elder cousins in Barolo. Very drinkable with the fatty richness and occasional strong bacon flavours of the dish. Decanted for an hour before serving helped to open up the aromas too.
Look forward to trying a lot more interesting Italian wines at the EWBC (European Wine Bloggers Conference) in Brescia next week
