Wine Description
Ruby red. To the nose rich and persistent, complex bouquet: berries, dark spices, ethereal and mineral aromas (graphite) and vanilla make this wine incredibly lively and interesting. Young tannins matching a bright acidity hold very well a warm and harmonious wine. Long finish. Surely a superb vintage for our Lodolaia.
It goes well with venison, red meat and mature cheese.

Curiosity
The Lodolo (a type of falcon) is a bird that prefers open areas, such as cultivated agricultural lands, the Taiga and the Savannah. It is an elegant bird of prey that feeds on large insects such as dragonflies, which are seized by the beak at the neck and are eaten while still in flight. Its speed and acrobatic abilities enable it to grab even small birds like swallows and swifts in flight.
Food Pairing
Perfect with grilled red meat, game dishes and mature cheese.
