A little tjhin but smooth finish. (2462 views) | | Tasted by 5laton on 1/12/2008 flawed bottle: Corked. 2/2 so far with corked Mastroberardino wines from 2003. (2940 views) | | Tasted by Armando B on 11/3/2007 & rated 85 points: New to me. Bought in a closeout bin for $5. Definitely worth that.
Not sure of the grape content, but restrained red fruit and earth reminiscent of a CC from a cool year. Not much on the nose.
Good match with turkey sausage lasagne. (2765 views) | | Tasted by lifeattable on 7/15/2006 & rated 86 points: Nice little wine that you don't really see everywhere. Definitely worth picking up if you have never tried it, although quite honestly it tastes better with some fresh fish at a table overlooking the Mediterranean.
Light bodied, smooth drinking red wine. Pairs with traditional southern italian food. (3194 views) |
| Mastroberardino Producer websitePiedirossoPiedirosso is an ancient, black-skinned grape variety found throughout Campania, Italy.
Single-variety wines made from Piedirosso tend to be deep ruby in color and full bodied with soft tannins. Typical flavors in these wines include plum, cherry and brambly wild berry fruit. More complex characteristics such as espresso, mushroom and damp earth are exhibited in the better examples.
A minerally, almost salty characteristic can be found in many Piedirosso wines. This can in part be attributed to the volcanic soils in which the grape thrives.Italy Italian Wines (ItalianMade.com, The Italian Trade Commission) | Italian Wine Guide on the WineDoctorCampania Region Website (ItalianMade.com)
