Marchesi Cattaneo Adorno Giustiniani A Matilde Giustiniani

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.
