Castello di Gabiano A Matilde Giustiniani

The estate's Riserva, dedicated to Princess Matilde Giustiniani who restored the castle, made only in the best vintages from a historic estate vineyard with notable ageing potential.

Tasting notes

Colour: very intense ruby red with deep, orange reflections. Bouquet: intense and persistent, very fine and complex, with fruity hints of small, ripe wild red fruit, balsamic notes, fine chocolate, pepper and tobacco. Taste: complexity emerges with an evolution of the bouquet into ethereal expressions, undergrowth and fruit in alcohol.

Pairs well with

Meat-based dishes, braised meats, aged cheeses.
