Ronco Dei Pini Limes(2001)

The Wine Messenger
91/100
February 2008
A great example of food-pairing versatility and the wonders the Northern Italians can do with Bordeaux grapes.
Limes is a Bordeaux Blend. This wine is very good, not too expensive, and has very different flavors from typical Bordeaux blends. Any wine lover should taste it. This wine is a blend of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon and 30% Merlot. The vines are grown in Colli Orientali del Friuli on steep hills well exposed. After fermentation, the wine stays in barriques of 225 liters for a year. The passage in barriques makes this wine full and smooth, and the bouquet keeps the flavors of mature fruit.
