Note di degustazione
An international blend of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, the Castello di Gabbiano 2016 Alleanza Cavaliere d'Oro is hearty, rich and concentrated. The wine shows good balance, something that can be counted on in this excellent vintage, with dark fruit flavors, well-managed tannins and just enough acidity to keep it lively and food-friendly, especially with a classic pappardelle with wild boar. It will get the job done no matter what meat dish you serve next to it.

The 2016 Alleanza Cavaliere d'Oro is Gabbiano's Merlot/Cabernet Sauvignon blend. Dark fruit, mocha, chocolate and licorice are front and center, but ultimately it is the wine's abrupt finish that is most disconcerting. Wines like this can be quite successful in Chianti Classico. The Alleanza feels like it was pushed too hard.
