Descrizione

Calonga’s Romagna Sangiovese Superiore DOC “Leggiolo” expresses the authentic character of Romagna’s emblematic grape variety. In the glass, it shows a ruby-red colour tending towards garnet, sometimes with violet reflections. Its nose is winey and delicate, with floral nuances reminiscent of violet. The palate is full and well-structured, while retaining softness and elegance. In its youth, it offers a pleasant tannic character that supports its balanced and distinctive profile.

Its structure and harmony make this wine an excellent choice for the table and convivial occasions. It pairs well with red meat, game and traditional Romagna dishes such as cappelletti and tortelloni with ragù. It is also well suited to mature cheeses. “Leggiolo” is an appealing choice for those who want to discover the gastronomic identity and confident yet harmonious character of Romagna Sangiovese.
