Ruby red, plum and vanilla notes, and a velvety palate featuring ripe plum, chocolate, and a touch of herbs.
Uggiano Petraia Food Pairing
Best paired with chargrilled steak, roast beef and roast lamb – preferably served rare; grilled chops – veal, pork or lamb – especially with herbs such as thyme and rosemary; roast chicken, turkey and Guinea fowl, roast duck and Chinese crispy duck pancakes. Anything with mushrooms or truffles will be a good match.
Ageing
The wine is aged in French oak barrels for 16 months. Then maturation continues in large 30/60 Hl oak casks for a further 12 months. The wine is then stored in stainless steel tanks until bottling. After bottling, the wine rests in bottle for at least 12 months before being released.
