This deep ruby red beauty is elegant and asserts itself with black cherries, blueberries, blackberry brambles, with floral notes of violets and lavender. The finish seems endless. This is a real joy to leisurely savor over a long meal with friends.
I love this 2009 Taurasi Riserva paired with the rich classics of the Campania region. My favorite is lamb scottadito, rich beef and venison stews, or pork chops grilled over a wood charcoal fire. You won't go wrong pairing this with in-season fresh grilled porcini mushrooms.
The 2009 will lay down a very long time if you prefer to hold for future enjoyment.
