Petit Verdot Casale del Giglio 2024
The Petit Verdot from Casale del Giglio is a Lazio-style version of this Bordeaux-origin grape. A wide and intriguing olfactory bouquet played on berries, sour cherry in spirits, and sweet spices, including prominent pepper and licorice. It concludes with a medium-structured sip, with a drying tannin and a smoky finish.
The Casale del Giglio Petit Verdot presents itself visually with a deep and dark color, at times impenetrable, reminiscent of ruby tones. The berries and the scents of the underbrush alternate with olfactory notes of spices and licorice. On the palate, it is medium-bodied, characterized by a tannin that makes the sip dry and crisp; it finishes with an aftertaste marked by a slight smoky note. A perfect bottle with meat dishes, both red and white, that pairs well with a selection of aged and blue cheeses.
