2011 Costantini Cerasuolo d’Abruzzo “Febe” Rosato; Italy

The name of this wine, “Cerasuolo,” is derived from Italian  for its characteristic light cherry-red color; its clean, intense, persistent bouquet which features the delicate fragrance of rose petals and other flowers and then fruits – cherry, pomegranate and wild strawberries. It is delicately vinous, fresh,  soft and pleasantly persistent. It is enhanced by fresh-tasting acidity, has a fine body and a fruity finish, where red fruits persist with hints of tobacco and licorice. Perfect with robust fish dishes, grilled meats and substantial pasta or rice dishes, including those with wild-game sauces.
