POP Brio

Brio means liveliness in Italian, and Tenuta L’Armonia has gotten it right. The combination of Cabernet Franc, Barbera and Red Tocai is unique, and each varietal adds its personality to the light-bodied red. The secret is in the poor volcanic soils that force the grapevines to dig deep for nutrients, resulting in concentrated fruit. This wine opens with bright red berry aromas, proper of carbonic maceration, followed by hints of earthiness and dried herbs. The palate is light and fruit-forward but pleasingly tart on the back palate, with subtle, well-rounded tannins in the background. Enjoy with cured meats, grilled red meat and roasted poultry.
