Schiava is ruby in color and is characterized by fine-grained tannins. Its bouquet is fresh and fruity and one distinctive feature is its roundness. On the palate this medium-bodied wine reclass red berries and a light aroma of bitter almond. It is marked by a round and persistent finish. This wine is a must for speck (cured ham) and local cheeses. It also pairs well with poultry, pizza, mushrooms, and kind of mild cheese. Delicious on its own at any time of the day.
