This Rosso Bruno Fruscalzo is an excellent union between Merlot and Refosco, with the latter prevails and becomes the protagonist of this red delle Venezie IGP. But a summary of the kind not do justice to this great wine, read the rest, you will not regret.
Fruscalzo Bruno, Rosso Bruno , here is revealed the origin of the name of this excellent Rosso delle Venezie IGP , a skillful blend of Merlot and Refosco , vintage 2007.
But as I said Refosco prevails , however, is supported by the Merlot and the result … I’ll describe it , or at least I try .
Yes, because a wine like this , so good, it’s hard to make out the words .
Let’s start by its red , the color of a clear and lively dark ruby in the center and on the edges gradually clearer. No particular highlights .
We come to another red , that of the fruit in the aroma , just this , suffocated between a violent smell of wine, spices and undergrowth on fire , you know … Refosco 1 – 0 Merlot .
But tasting the Rosso Bruno Fruscalzo you understand where it comes from the contribution of the merlot and the body of this wine , which is not as fresh as in the pure Refosco (excuse the term), but it is strong and vigorous , well most of his thirteen degrees.
His energy, the result barely perceptible tannins and robust making it a great wine for the game, it’s deer or wild boar stew or roast and with a good dose of spices if necessary , Rosso Bruno is present.
I’ve been drinking in combination with a steak, but the beef was literally paved , on his side , however, is the fact that the body does not feel it so you can drink without the mind to drown .
Served at 20 degrees in a very large cup , it is a wine that is 6 years old but is still at the beginning of the path and I think it has all the credentials to get away .
