Descrizione

Ottava Rima Rosso is a red wine from the Maremma Toscana DOC produced by Tenuta L'Impostino. In the glass it shows a medium-intensity ruby color with an inviting brilliance. On the nose it opens with aromas of ripe red fruits and small dark berries, joined by light spicy notes and a Mediterranean hint of aromatic herbs and subtle earthy nuances. The overall bouquet is straightforward and direct, offering good complexity without excess.

On the palate it presents a medium-full body, a sound balance between freshness and structure, and present but ripe tannins that support the drinking experience. The fruit notes found on the nose are echoed on the palate, supported by moderate savoriness and a clean, persistent finish that invites another glass. Versatile at the table, it pairs well with red meats, hearty pasta dishes, medium to well-aged cheeses and Tuscan-style preparations. Serve around 16–18 °C; a few minutes in a decanter can help open the aromas.
