Category: Red Wine Style: Dry
Producer: Bodegas Fin Santo
Description:XIII Lunas is made with Garnacha (63%) and Tempranillo (37%) grapes from vineyards planted in the Najerilla Valley, in the Rioja Alta subzone, and its origin unmistakably influences its character. It's a modern Rioja, with energy, body, and structure, yet with a classic soul—very appealing, easy to drink, and elegant. The nod to nature is also present in its name: thirteen moons, the thirteen revolutions of the Moon around the Earth, the thirteen lunar cycles that correspond to the twelve months of aging in barrels.
Tasting Notes:Bright ruby red with vermilion reflections. Enveloping and deep aromas of barrel ageing perfectly blend with the fresh aromas of red fruits typical of Garnacha and Tempranillo grapes. In the mouth it is fresh, harmonious, silky, with delicate and elegant tannins. Aromas in the mouth are marked, reflecting those felt in the nose. A pleasant and nice wine, with a modern style.
Food Matches: Meat Casseroles / Lamb /Beef / Hard Mature Cheeses
Corallini recall a typical female ornament, once widespread in the coastal areas of the Mediterranean, where coral was fished along the entire coast. Barilla Corallini have the essential and elegant appearance of tiny tubes, very short and smooth in shape. Able to retain broth or purees, which are channeled into their tiny opening, they represent a refined alternative in the choice of pasta.
Ideal with: Tasty ingredients, such as leek and pine nuts. Try them in a delicious seafood soup, where the flavor of the scampi is enhanced by the presence of vegetables and herbs
