Tasting Notes
Cantaloro is Avignonesi’s everyday wine and is available in white, rosé and red. The wines are fruit forward, easy drinking and accessible.
A versatile, young red wine with a ruby red colour and a bouquet characterised by inviting aromas of black cherry pie, black berries, thyme, red pepper grains and exotic spices. The taste is medium-bodied, fruity and smooth with a long lingering, dry finish, reminiscent of undergrowth, with an underlying hint of menthol.
