CONTI THUN’s “MICHELANGELO” is an enveloping, very elegant, complex and graceful red wine made from a blend of the estate’s best grapes including the prized Marzemino (in the drying process).
After harvest, the vinification and first ageing takes place in stainless steel tanks, followed by a 2nd ageing in new French oak barrels for 1 year, and finally 6 months rest and further ageing in bottle.
In appearance, it shows a beautiful garnet red colour. Its bouquet is intense and complex, with suggestive notes of liquorice, morello cherry, vanilla and black pepper. The sip brings together this blend of typical local grapes through a distinguished and enveloping character, and a warm, soft, savoury taste experience.
Food pairing: Cold meats, mature cheeses, mixed grill, boiled meats, fatty meats and elaborate first courses. Recommended serving temperature: 15 -18 °C.
