The original release from Oscar 697, Rosso is a classic Italian drink with a contemporary look. Unlike many mainstream brands, the colour is obtained naturally with the addition of burnt sugar, which adds a welcome bitterness, complementing the liquorice and rhubarb notes.
This is very good value for money. A Piedmont red under $30! It has good dark fruit, some nice tannins and acid to balance although it would benefit from some more age to smooth it a bit but I liked its feistiness now.
I was happily surprised by the quality of the labels in the "mystery" case of rose wines - great value for the money I must say. Excellent drinking experience from the unfamiliar labels and happy to enjoy again the familiar ones.
