Cerasuolo D'Abruzzo

This wine has a reddish copper color, very much like a rosato. The nose is dominated by an earthy, herbal note, but the red fruit shines through nicely. On the palate, those cherry and strawberry flavors come through strongly. The acidity is decent enough for pairing with something like pork or fish. It is maybe a bit pricey for a typical rosé drinker, but I give it high marks. I’ll be pairing it with leftover turkey and ham sandwiches on Black Friday.
