2021 Marchesi Incisa della Rocchetta Grignolino d'Asti
From: Asti, Piedmont, ItalyVarietal: Grignolino Tasting Notes: Aromas of cranberry, wild strawberry, rose, and autumnal spice, lead to a dry, light-bodied palate. Dominant bright red fruit flavors mingle with rose hip and dustings of white pepper and umami, leading to a mouth-watering finish with balanced, refined tannins on this gorgeous, chillable red. Pairing: Despite the light color, but thanks to its tannic structure, Grignolino is a very good match for a wide range of dishes: from pasta dishes with tomato sauces, pizzas, light cheeses and charcuteries to grilled meats and fish, vegetarian dishes, and sushi. We recommend dishes like poached salmon, simple risotto with fresh herbs, a classic roasted chicken, or anything with mushrooms! We’d recommend Florence Fabricant’s recipe for Striped Bass all’Amatriciana. About.
