Pietramatta’s “SASS” is a elegant, Bordeaux-style red wine made from a blend of Cabernet Franc, Merlot & Cabernet Sauvignon.
Hand harvested, the vinification process starts with grapes which are pressed as soon as they are destemmed to preserve the aromatic palette. Maceration can then begin.
After a careful ageing, this wine will be bottled where his ageing potential is very long (as long as you can manage to keep it in your cellar !)
The appearance shows a very deep, ruby red color, with garnet hues through his evolution in time.
The ageing process it undergoes in the bottle, delivers an aromatic palette going from the initial fruity aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry, tobacco and cedar, to the balsamic and spicy tertiary notes.
Food match: a wonderful match with grilled or roasted meat, game, or rich ragù-style pasta courses. You’ll love it with a juicy hamburger, lasagna or risotto with truffle. For vegetarian-based dishes: pasta & fagioli, roasted parsnips in the oven, glazed carrots.
Recommended to open 2 to 12hrs before enjoyment, and a serving-temperature of 18°C.
