Aquila Montepulciano
Ruby red color with violet hues.
On the nose triumph of black cherry and black currant scents linked to notes of bitter cocoa, vanilla and a pleasantly spicy fragrance: our interpretation of typicality.
In the mouth it has an enveloping and soft entry, elegantly tannic, which preludes to a long persistence of acidity and sapidity with notes aftertaste that recall those perceived on the nose.
By the glass with typical cured meats and selections of aged cheeses.
At the table ideal with grilled meat or savory meats dishes and braised
