1L 2022 Flavia, Nerello Mascalese Rosato Madda

From: Sicily, ItalyVarietal: Nerello Mascalese Tasting Notes: This Rosato falls in the category of a rich, food-friendly style of rosé (think Cerasuolo d’Abruzzo, Tavel, and Bandol). You’ll find aromas and flavors of summer flowers, juicy strawberry and pomegranate, blood orange citrus, stone fruits, orange zest and sea spray minerality that meet more savory elements like allspice and dried thyme in the glass. Pairing: This lovely and zesty rosato can complement every dish at your table but goes especially well with eggplant and meatballs. Some other ideas for pairing inspiration include Eggplant Caponata (see recipe below) over toast or pasta, eggplant parmesan, any dish with Mediterranean influences (avoiding heavy proteins), pizza, poultry or pork dishes with tomato or red pepper, stir fry, chicken teriyaki, sweet and sour chicken or pork, fried rice, and Al Pastor tacos would all be winning combinations.
