The wine shows an olfactory range extremely wide, subtle, and particularly intense. Sensations derived from the used variety (raspberry, cassis, strawberry), from refining in wood (vanilla, coconut, pepper, liquorice, cloves) and eventually from bottle refining (greatly prominent balsamic scents; resin, cedar, pine) coexist.
Taste
Alessandro appears extremely rich and complex, endowed with a great softness and with a considerable structure at the same time. A wine with a great evolutionary potential, which is bound to surprise in years to come.
Coupling
A wine with great complexity and structure definitely couples with tasty and very elaborate dishes, such as hare, wild boar or rabbit.
