Red
A Matilde Giustiniani
By Marchesi Cattaneo Adorno Giustiniani, Monferrato, Piemonte, Italy
Gabiano Riserva dedicated to Princess Matilde Giustiniani, who restored the castle. Made only in the best vintages from an historic vineyard of the estate; suited to long ageing and to sipping after a meal.
Tasting notes
Colour: very intense ruby red with deep, orange reflections. Nose: intense and persistent, very fine and complex, with clear notes of ripe small wild red fruits, balsamic notes, fine chocolate, pepper and tobacco. Palate: its complexity shows in an evolution of the bouquet into ethereal notes, undergrowth and fruit in alcohol.
Pairs well with
Meat dishes, braised meats, aged cheeses.
