Winery Review: "Remole 2017 has a deep, brilliant and intense violet-red color. The nose reveals decisive cherry and raspberry aromas, followed by spicy hints of black pepper. Its main characteristic is its pleasantness, which combines elegance with balance and a pronounced softness."
My Review: I had this at an Italian restaurant with a few friends. It had good fruit flavors with hints of spice as well. There was a mild tannic structure with a good finish. The best part of the wine was how it paired with my main dish. I had a sausage penne in vodka sauce and the two matched very well. The fats of the sausage and thickness of sauce brought out more of the fruit flavors and some spicy notes from the wine. The higher amounts of Cabernet Sauvignon was interesting and I would try this again, as well as trying other Tuscan blends.
