Cantele Salice Salentino Riserva 2015 Bottle:12 marrying generosity with good cutRuby red in color with garnet streaks, this wine offers intense and complex aromas of candied fruits and spices that evolve into clean underbrush, tea and amber. Enhanced by notes of red flowers, the same aromas linger on the palate, complemented by confident but not overbearing alcohol. The tannins and fresh acidity work together to create a balanced, smooth wine. Ideal with roast veal and beef, game, lamb and ripe aged cheeses.
