Profile

Description

Bollina is an eighth-generation family-owned winery begun in 1830, and their Corte Medicea 'Cletus' is an expressive blend of Tuscany's signature grape - Sangiovese - and Merlot.

Pairing

Simple, homemade pasta in a rich tomato-based sauce would be a great match for this red, or try with a slow-cooked lamb stew.

Aromas and Flavours

Plum

Sweet, fruity and sensual, similar stone fruit aromas to a peach, but without the 'fuzziness'.

Strawberry

A sweet, almost caramel-like aroma reminiscent of your favourite juicy, red berry.

Cherry

Fresh B.C. cherries out of the back of a truck, all eaten before you can get them home!

Jam

Spreading grandma's homemade jam on your morning toast (yes, the bread was homemade too).

Herb

Your windowsill herb garden gives off a lovely herbal smell every time you walk by.
