Velenosi Brecciarolo Rosso Piceno Superiore 2023

Velenosi Brecciarolo Rosso Piceno Superiore 2023 is a ripe, juicy, and expressive Italian red wine that beautifully represents the winemaking heritage of the Marche region. A classic blend of Montepulciano and Sangiovese, it exhibits a deep ruby color with elegant garnet highlights in the glass. The nose opens with an intense, fragrant bouquet bursting with plump black cherries, black plums, and fresh violet flowers, beautifully interlaced with notes of hot chocolate, vanilla, anise, and sweet baking spices. On the palate, this full-bodied and charismatic red is smooth, warm, and well-balanced. It frames its luscious, jammy dark berry flavors with a vibrant vein of integrated acidity and supple, berry-soaked tannins, resulting in a persistent, dry, and harmoniously fruity finish marked by delicate touches of cedar, cocoa powder, and graphite.

Food Pairing: Pairs wonderfully with grilled rosemary lamb chops, slow-cooked beef roasts, rigatoni all'amatriciana, or robust wild game stews.

Hot chocolate, plums and vanilla on the nose of this ripe, juicy red. It’s full-bodied and lightly jammy, with berry-soaked tannins and a fruity finish. Drink now.
