Product Description:

"Made from 90% Cannonau, 5% Bovale Sardo and 5% Carignano grown in the Costera vineyard. In order to achieve greater color extraction and flavor concentration, the juice is macerated with the skins for 16 days, with soft but frequent pumpovers. The wine is aged in French barriques for six months prior to bottling. Intense ruby-red in color, this wine offers seductive aromas of ripe black cherries, pepper, and licorice. Warm and full-bodied on the palate, with excellent texture, ripe fruit flavors and pleasant tannins. Costera is an excellent food wine that is best enjoyed with roast beef with herbs, filet mignon, stews and sharp cheeses." -Importer
