The Riserva Vigna Pedale stands out for its characteristic intense ruby red color with garnet reflections that become more pronounced with aging. On the nose, this wine offers a complex and multifaceted bouquet: notes of ripe forest fruits blend with spicy and balsamic hints, enriched by a slight aroma of tobacco and vanilla derived from maturation in wood.
On the palate, the Vigna Pedale surprises with its robust and well-balanced structure. The acidity and tannins are harmoniously integrated, giving the wine a pleasant freshness and a very long-lasting taste. Its evolution in the bottle makes it ideal for prolonged aging, during which the wine continues to develop complexity and depth.
Gastronomic pairings are essential to bringing out the qualities of this wine. It pairs perfectly with structured dishes such as roasted red meats, game, and aged cheeses. The ideal serving temperature is between 18 and 20°C, allowing the Vigna Pedale to fully express its aromatic potential.
