Radicanto

Radicanto is born in the heart of the Matese. Its roots reach into the ancient soil the Bourbon kings chose for their wine, its song tells of the passion of a new generation. Intense and elegant, it is the sip that joins tradition and future.

When to drink it. An autumn dinner with friends, the ragù simmering for hours and the bottle opened a little before sitting down.

In the glass and at the table

• Palate: structured and complex, yet balanced by soft tannins
• Food pairing: Neapolitan ragù, grilled meats, sausage and friarielli, medium-aged cheeses

Pair it with Lucicanto: the white and the red of the same land.
