A mix of Merlot and Sangiovese, the 2013 Valletta is a beautiful wine with bold intensity that needs a few minutes to emerge from the glass. This wine needs a little time to open, but once it does it offers a long succession of thick berry flavors that are enhanced by spice, leather, tobacco and balsam herb. This vintage shows evident balance and harmony with integrated acidity that keeps the palate refreshed. Successful pairing options would include succulent pork or grilled lamb chops. - Monica Larner
