Great
Italian names such as Barolo and Brunello
di Montalcino with the Nebbiolo and
the Sangiovese grape, respectfully,
produce wines that hold a lovely herbal
taste, sometimes very strong, but
with a background of cherry
and plum to lift the wine. In terms
of food, these wines go well with
most dishes but in particular
with stews and roasts. The lighter
examples such as Valpolicella go very
well pasta dishes and pizza. |
