Profile

Mezzanella is a Recioto wine that stands out for its complexity and for its characteristic almond a ertaste. A real rarity that comes from the eponymous vineyard, well known for its quality since the XII century, where the grapes ripen naturally in traditional drying lo s during the cold winter months.

The wine is opaque ruby red with viscous texture. On the nose it's complex with a combination of baked fruit and sweet spices. The palate is a full-bodied mix of dried plums and cinnamon. Fascinating aftertaste of almonds and intriguing bitter-sweet finish.

Goes well with mature cheeses with bite, sweet pastries and dried fruit. The perfect accompaniment to the intense, ripe aromas of a cigar.

Critic awards

Dense garnet color. it’s full of prune, forest floor, tobacco and coffee ground aromas. Soft and sweet on the palate, with a full body, silky tannins and fresh, balancing acidity. Could be a little more complex on the finish, but it will improve with aging. Drink or hold.
