My friend Grace (who is also in this class) brought this nice bottle over to a lasagna dinner at my house. Red wine and lasagna is now my favorite thing ever.
Name: Colle Pino
Type: Merlot (50%) & Sangiovese (50%)
Region: Tuscany
Country: Italy
Year: 2010
Price: $8.95
Bottlenotes review: Ruby-red in color, young but intense. Fresh, fruit forward bouquet with intense red currant, raspberry and plum notes. Full fruit flavors with soft, sweet tannins.My notes: It smells of raspberry and blackberry, with hints of oak. It begins tannic with a little bit of sweet currant flavor, but has an acidic finish.
Food: After eating lasagna, the wine now tastes much fruitier and goes down much smoother
