Teroldego (pronounced TEH-RAWL-DAY-GO) has been cultivated since ancient times in northeast Italy near Trentino.  Reminiscent of our award-winning Lagrein from some years back, this wonderful and very rare Italian varietal comes from right here in Santa Clara County.  Barrel-aged in 25% new oak, it has an elegant, intriguing and complex structure.  The inky, big, dark, beautiful color, and full-bodied finish make this a great wine to explore and expand your palate with friends.  It has deeply concentrated spicy, sweet, and dark berry flavors, and you may even detect some plum and baking spices on the nose.  Its balanced acidity make it very food-friendly, and terrific with grilled or roasted red meats, spicy pastas, and even dark chocolate.  Undeniably unique!
