Vintage 2016
In the glass, 2016 Dettori Rosso has a bright ruby colour with faint garnet hues.
The breadth and intensity of the olfactory panorama are astounding, with notes of sour cherry, myrtle, essence of violet and lavender, lentisk, mint and thyme, which blend with deep sensations of cocoa, carob, graphite and black pepper.
The enciting development is nourished by the antagonism between the softness, given by the warmth and the delicate residual sugar, the fresh-savoury verve and the melting tannic texture. The whole is combined in a context of surprising balance and great taste-olfactory correspondence, with a never-ending finish.
An interpretation that demonstrates how power and elegance can coexist, giving rise to a harmonious and unique combination, able to evoke the indomitable spirit of Sardinia.
Food pairing: Dettori Rosso 2016 should be paired with foods that complement its structure and personality, such as venison dishes, “Dolceforte hare”, stuffed meats, pigeon casserole and recipes with the fifth quarter.
