Torrevento Vigna Pedale Castel del Monte Rosso Riserva 2014
Puglia, ItalyNero di Troia grapes thrive in the Castel del Monte region of Apulia, here growing at 350 to 450 metres above sea level. It spends just over a year in large casks to better expand its reach in the glass. The nose is an invitation to the southern Mediterranean, with black raspberry and cherry. The attack is fresh with some surprising acidity and earthy, licorice, red fruits with that fierce Italian dryness in the finish. Vigna Pedale is the definition of a wine that needs food but not in a negative way. A mushroom pasta dish or a favourite meaty pizza is the match.Tasted: 26 May 2019Tasted by: Prices:
