More questions
The Rosso IGT Alpi Retiche "Roe" from Retica is a red IGT wine with a frank character and medium body. In the glass it shows a clear ruby color; on the nose it alternates notes of ripe red fruit, hints of small dark berries and light aromatic herb notes. The entry on the palate is immediate, with soft tannins and a balanced structure; the finish retains a fresh, savory note that invites another sip. The aromatic language remains simple and direct, without excess, suitable for those seeking an everyday yet carefully made wine.
It pairs well with homemade dishes: savory cured meats, semi-aged cheeses, meat-based sauces and preparations with mushrooms; it is also pleasant with rustic pizzas and traditional mountain dishes. Serve at a moderate temperature around 16–18 °C in large glasses; it can be appreciated in cooler months as a table companion. Produced by Retica, it offers an honest and versatile option for consumers who prefer wines with an immediate and agreeable profile.
