Pelissero Langhe Long Now 2015
The name "Long Now" recalls the long living concept and it is the name given by outstanding Californian scientists (the Long Now Foundation) who referred to the special clock designed on the label which is currently exhibited at the Science Museum of London.

Colour

Violet-bluish almost black and hardly transparent but also lively and particularly pleasant.

Bouquet

The impenetrability is also perceived in the nose, with a marked varietal scent and aroma of ripe fruit, blackberry, raspberry and red cherry framing to the slightly fragrance of vanilla.

Flavour

The explosion comes in the mouth, where it is open, fullbodied, velvety and all-embracing. The savour and elegance of the two varietals combine excellently and appear at their best expression the pleasantness of an unforgettable taste.

Pairing

Cheese
