TASTING NOTE: Natale Verga has been producing wines for just shy of 125 years. Their 2015 I Balzi Rosso is a 90% Corvina and 10% Merlot blend and is crafted in a modern and likeable style offering quite a broad appeal. Black cherry, dried fruit and spice in a soft and ripe package. A really good wine for lamb stew. (Vintages panel, May 2017) Score - GOLD (Mundus Vini, 2017) |
