Red
Il Ruvo
By Marchesi Cattaneo Adorno Giustiniani, Monferrato, Piemonte, Italy
Pure Grignolino, an ancient native variety with small, compact berries. Its pale garnet colour makes it an alternative to rosé or white wines.
Tasting notes
Colour: garnet red with an almost orange rim. Nose: typical profile with floral notes of slightly dried wild rose and bramble, and the spice of cloves, cinnamon and ground white pepper characteristic of Grignolino del Monferrato Casalese. Palate: fresh, savoury, warm, with the right, typical tannins.
Pairs well with
Delicate Mediterranean and Asian dishes of raw fish and aromatic herbs.
