La Mozza Aragone 2015

A blend of Sangiovese, Syrah and Alicante Bouschet.

When La Mozza started to think about creating their own “Supertuscan”, they wanted to avoid the usual connection to Bordeaux with its Cabernet and Merlot. This is how La Mozza Aragone was born, a true "super-Mediterranean" wine using varieties known for overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea, each with its own character and personality. Already to the eye, the La Mozza Aragone expresses its complexity with an inky, dark and deep red, impenetrable to light. On the nose the fruit is rich and ripe: notes of menthol, spicy wood and plum are immediately apparent. The palate follows with hints of tobacco leaf, leather and ripe fruit. The character of La Mozza Aragone expresses itself without compromise, with dense fruit, full tannins and delicate woody vanilla. Thanks to its acidity, the La Mozza Aragone remains light and remarkably fresh. Incredibly long, persistent, and, therefore, typical. It's the perfect foil for grilled meat, it also pairs well with roasts in which spices and sauces abound as well as seasoned and intense cheeses. Not to be missed with a classic Tuscan cigar, possibly 'Il Moro'.
