Sommelier notes
Tasting
Appearance: Orange-flecked ruby red. Bouquet: Scents of wild berry fruit, along with impressions of black liquorice, cocoa powder, and Oriental spices. Palate: Warm and smooth, armonious and well balanced, with the perfect level of tannins. Rambaldo VIII has the potential for longterm ageing in the bottle.
How to enjoy it
Food pairings
Smooth and alcohol-rich, with judicious tannins and a firm structure, this red is an ideal partner to dishes such as grilled meats (pork, sausages, ham) and brings out the qualities of any recipe with game. It pairs beautifully with aged and fullflavoured cheeses.
