Product Description
Le Casematte “Rosematte” Nerello Mascalese IGT
100% Nerello Mascalese. Bright coral pink in color, the wine’s bouquet has notes of small red fruit like wild strawberry and red currant as well as flowery notes of Mediterranean herbs and minerality. Fresh and delectable with crisp fruit flavors and wonderful acidity. Light, refreshing, and zesty on the palate with a lingering finish.
“Le Casematte is deeply rooted in the territory and its history but also values the needs of contemporary wine production.”
