Descrizione

Terruno Malbec (Su Richiesta) by La Celia is a red wine based on the Malbec grape, offered by the producer with a focus on drinkability. It shows a bouquet recognizable for dark fruit notes, subtle spicy nuances and floral hints; on the palate it reveals a balanced structure, soft tannins and a pleasant persistence without being intrusive. It is suitable for those seeking a direct and sincere profile, fitting for everyday drinking as well as informal occasions.

The sensory expression can vary depending on vintage and production choices; for details on origin, aging or other technical specifics refer to the label or the producer. It is recommended to serve it at a moderate temperature and, if desired, to open it some time before to encourage the release of aromas. It pairs well with grilled red meats, stews, medium-matured cheeses and flavorful dishes; it also remains versatile with grilled vegetables or mushroom preparations.
