Wine Description:
Monsordo is both the name of the historical farmhouse that hosts the Ceretto winery in Alba, as well as the hill where many of its vineyards lie. This Ceretto offering is made from Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Syrah. All three varietals are vinified and aged separately in wooden barrels for 18 months after which they are blended to make this elegant, ageworthy wine.
Tasting Notes:
Deep ruby red in color with garnet highlights, this red blend has aromas of dark berry fruits and black plums complemented by undertones of sweet spices and vanilla. On the palate, the structure is enhanced by finely-grained tannins to make a rich, fullbodied wine.
Food Pairing:
Pair this wine with stuffed red meat dishes like flank steak roulade or farsumagru. - Winery
