Tasting notes
A soft and round wine, which has a deep ruby red color and a long and intense perfume of red fruits, blackberry jam, sweetened by spicy notes of licorice. Full and concentrated in the palate but well-balanced with fine and elegant tannins, thanks also to the ageing process in French barriques.
Food pairings
Quail stuffed with foie gras and morels, roasts and braised meat, stews, grilled meat, aged cheeses. Serve at 17-18°C
Notes
The name of this wine refers to the historical little village of Cusercoli, close to the winery, which was controlled in the past by the Guidi Family. This is an important wine, a blend of Sangiovese grapes, which give fruity aromas with a touch of freshness, while the partially dried grapes of Cabernet give a concentration of aromas and flavors.
