Mamertino has a ruby ​​red color with purple reflections. On the palate it is velvety and well-balanced, with sweet notes of plum and cherry. The aroma is intense and recalls dark fruit jam.

Recommended pairings:

With its soft and rounded taste it enhances first courses based on ragù, red meats and mature cheeses.
