Croci Emilia Rosso Frizzante Galvano

Croci Gutturnio Frizzante 2016

We had high expactations of this Gutturnio, as it comes from Castell'Arquato, the home of fantastic wines. However, we found it to be a little bit musty / past its best, which is perhaps to be expected for a 4 year old Gutturnio, as these are probably wines that are best consumed within a couple of years? (needless to say, we still quaffed it and it went down rather well with our tagliatelle al ragù!!)

Nice balanced frizzante red

Frizzante, dry Barbera/Bonarda blend. Raspberries, blueberries, citrus rind, rosemary. Evident tannins in a balanced mouthfeel with no oak and the effervescence for added texture.
