Valle dell'Acate Cerasuolo di Vittoria Classico DOCG 2015 Review
Tart and juicy in the summer with a good chill on it, paired with some beef carpaccio; or cellar/room temp in the cold months paired with some venison on a bed of steamy polenta. Either way, this wine will shine. It smells like cherries and freshly turned soil and rests on the palate with the same. It has a slight chewy feel that can hold up to the protein.
