More questions
The Rosso IGT Lazio Cesanese from L'Olivella displays an honest, immediate profile consistent with the Cesanese grape's typicity. Of medium ruby color, it offers aromas of ripe red fruits, light floral notes and a subtle spice note that keeps the overall picture balanced. On the palate it shows medium body, soft tannins and a freshness that supports the drinking; the finish is pleasant and recalls the fruity impressions perceived on the nose.
It is a wine intended for everyday use but also suitable for informal convivial moments. It pairs with grilled meats, flavorful ragùs, semi-aged cheeses and tomato-based dishes; it can stand up to traditional dishes of Lazio without overpowering them. It is advisable to serve it at a moderate temperature in not-too-wide glasses to appreciate its aromas and overall balance. It can also be enjoyed slightly chilled during warm months.
