Fattoria di Casalbosco 2007 Orchidea Red (Toscana)
- Online Exclusive
A blend of Merlot and Cabernet, Orchidea (with a pretty silkscreened -label) displays a black, inky color and syrupy aromas of cherry liqueur, savory spice, brown sugar and molasses. It’s thick and succulent, with a dense, raw mouthfeel.

Here’s an elegant but also very approachable and friendly wine. There’s a bright, lively quality to the fruit here and the finish is long and rich in fresh fruit nuances. Would make a perfect pairing partner to oven roasted pasta and easy meat stew.
