“The 2020 Cerasuolo d’Abruzzo Campirosa takes some time to open in the glass. Swirling un- locks its fresh strawberry and cherry notes, laced with sweet florals. It’s silky-smooth and soothes with ripe red fruits and juicy acids. Hints of lico- rice, exotic spice and nuanced tannins come forward through the close, seeming to linger for nearly a minute.The Campirosa is already very easy to like, but take your time with it today, or lose a bottle or two in the cellar until next year.”

Product Description:

Montepulciano is the main red grape variety of the region and its rose version is called Cerasuolo (meaning 'cherry' in Italian) because of its attractive cherry-like color.

Pretty floral and berry aromas follow through to the palate. Dry and fresh with a good finish. Served well chilled it will pair beautifully with appetizers, seafood dishes, grilled vegetables and grilled poultry." - Importer
