Product Details
Country: Italy
Region: Emilia-Romagna
Sub Region: Val Tidone
Varietal: 60% Barbera, 40% Croatina
Type: Red
Style: Velvety and Medium-Bodied
Intense and glossy garnet color with brick red nuances; well pronounced and complex bouquet (hints of plum jam, vanilla, clove, pepper, leather and licorice); full flavor, warm and vigorous, with a distinct base of ripe fruit and spices.
Vinification “in red” with long controlled maceration, to have a selective extraction of “noble” tannins (neither bitter nor astringent); a year of aging in oak barrels, followed by at least another year of aging in bottle.
Gutturnio is a style of Italian wine blending Barbera and Croatina (Bonarda). Its designation dates to Julius Caesar's reign, when he married Calpurnia–the daughter of a local politician, Lucius Calpurnius Piso, who codified the production of this wine.
Food Pairing: roasted red meats, beef stews, mushroom-based dishes as vegetarian alternatives.
