Mission Briefing
La Bella Luna
Today’s 2010 Colli Di Luni ROSSO is a truly delicious, balanced wine. We have really enjoyed other wines from this winery, but this wine really captivated us.
If you love old world, bright, earthy Italian reds, please act quickly as this wine will sell out. We got our hands on every last case in the United States. When it is gone, it’ll be gone forever. Pair as you would a classic Italian red. We paired this down to earth wine with a spicy penne arrabbiata . This wine gets our heartiest Wine Spies recommendation!
Tasting Profile
| Look: | Darkest garnet hues, with perfect coloration from core to rim. On swirling, the wine settles quickly. Very gradually, tall, thin, wine-colored legs form - before very slowly running downward. |
|---|---|
| Smell: | Dar and very fragrant, with a bold, old world rush of ripe cherry, sandalwood, dried pipe tobacco, leather, dusty bramble, subtle dried herbs and dark plum. |
| Taste: | Balanced and complex, with dusty dark cherry, dried tobacco, smoky cassis and blackberry. These are followed by dusty bramble, dark brown spice, dark sweetwoods, flint, black pepper and black cherry. |
| Finish: | Very long, with balanced, bold, dark fruit flavors that gradually yield to to earth, bramble, minerals and a hint of exotic black pepper at the tail end. |
