La Stoppa IGT Emilia Rosso "Macchiona" (Library) 2010 skus_30285783 ripe plum and cedar nose

ripe plum and cedar nose is extremely welcome and is followed by the freshness which has become a hallmark of the 2015 vintage

Flavors of cranberry and strawberry mix with citrus notes of bergamot

it shows rich black fruit on the long finish

We love it with a bitter Radicchio Rosso combined with Borlotti beans made into a soup or hummus

A big wine that seems light as a feather

La Stoppa IGT Emilia Rosso "Macchiona" (Library) 2010 skus_30285783 ripe plum and cedar noseDeep, velvety looking ruby garnet colour with a little orange on the rim. The wines are unfiltered and unfined and there is a bit of materia in the glass. Luscious and ripe on the nose, kirsch, ink, warm earth, charred red pepper, some volatile acidity, but just enough to contribute complexity. Dry, sweetly fruited, savoury, zesty acidity. Soft, mellow mouthfeel, great freshness and length. Warmth on the finish, the only evidence of the 14% alcohol.
