Behold! The mighty Italian Teroldego. Cultivated in the Vigneti
delle Dolomiti wine region, this bold red wine is not for faint of heart. Do
let this beast aerate for a good long
while before your first sample sip. It pours a magenta like color followed by
notes of cherries and raspberries. You’ll pick up on two things right away:
high acidity and firm tannins. If you pass that taste “test”, then you’re on to
something very enjoyable. It comes across as full bodied upon further tasting
with some secondary notes of blueberries emerging. Nothing less than a full on
fatty protein dish is demanded for this heavy weight wine. Once you’ve sipped
and feasted, give yourself a pat on the back…you’re now a serious red wine
lover. Cin Cin!
Wine Of The Moment is just that. A moment of trying out a new bottle of wine and sharing our thoughts and impressions. There is no planned wine bottle that is to be opened or set time that it will be tasted. It is what ever just happens to be opened...for the moment. On occasion, we may also post our feedback on new wineries that we have visited as well as unique cheeses. So, pull up your own plate of cheese, crackers, and fruit and enjoy these discussions.
