Principe Pallavicini Petit Verdot 2024 IGT Lazio

A red wine from Principe Pallavicini, made from Petit Verdot grown in the La Pasolina vineyard at 300 metres altitude in a volcanic area south of Rome. The grapes are harvested by hand at the start of October, followed by red vinification and about two weeks of skin maceration. The wine ages in tonneaux for nine months and for at least three months in bottle. It is robust, with enveloping fruity aromas. It suits roast meats, braises and medium to long-aged cheeses. Intense ruby in colour, it shows redcurrant, blackberry and dog rose on the nose, with an enveloping, soft palate and intense fruity echoes.
