2021 Umberto I Rosso Montello Superiore
Our most important Bordeaux blend, emblem of the elegance that Montello can give to international vines. Spices, such as vanilla and pepper, mix with ripe fruit and toasted notes to create a whirlwind of sensations in which to get lost on cold winter days.
Excellent in combination with grilled meats, game and very mature cheeses. Also excellent at the end of a meal.
To be served at 18°C in large glasses to enjoy it at its best
