2019 Tenuta Di Castellaro Corinto

The Tenuta di Castellaro 2019 Corinto offers a fresh and lively bouquet with lifted aromas of wild cherry, cassis and Japanese plum. There is a floral side to the bouquet with aromas that recall red rose and an earthy hint of wet stone. Those aromas certainly hit the high notes, but the wine is comfortably thin and lean to the palate, opening it up to a simple pasta pairing or a dish of roasted tomatoes stuffed with rice. Corinto Nero grapes are harvested in volcanic soils with lapilli stones at 400 meters in elevation. Only 3,000 bottles were produced.
