This context contributes to giving the wine structure, balance, and a slow, complete maturation, fundamental elements for a \u003cstrong\u003eTaurasi DOCG Riserva\u003c\/strong\u003e of substance. Harvesting takes place in the second week of November, a choice consistent with the natural ability of Aglianico to reach full maturity in late periods. The result is a red that retains tension and freshness, but also knows how to offer volume and density on the palate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the glass, it presents an \u003cstrong intense ruby red\u003c\/strong\u003e, enriched by violet reflections.

The persistence is remarkable and leaves an elegant, full, and satisfying sensation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRecommended pairings\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eTaurasi DOCG Riserva 2019 Legare Fonzone\u003c\/strong\u003e shines with rich and flavorful dishes: braised meats, important roasts, game, oven-roasted lamb, structured ragù, and aged cheeses.
