Red
Paradiso
By Tenuta Tenaglia, Monferrato, Piemonte, Italy
A single-varietal Syrah red from Tenuta Tenaglia's Monferrato vineyards, fermented in steel and aged about a year in French oak barriques.
Tasting notes
An elegant, well-balanced red wine with a rich aromatic profile of black pepper, raspberry and stewed red berries. On the palate it is elegant and classy, robust and properly astringent, with barrique ageing rounding out the tannins.
Pairs well with
Red meats, game and semi-aged cheeses.
