"No 3 OPERA is the result of a careful selection of grapes personally made by Gian Andrea Tinazzi from three Italian Regions. Perfect with meats, roast and grilled, pot roast and important ripe cheese. Serving temperature 18/20°C in large glass; uncork a few hours before drinking."

"Deep, quite impenetrable color. The fragrance reminds us of red berry fruits with an intensive spice due to the aging on oak. An the palate is powerful and mellow. It suits well to important red meat dishes and is fantastic also as conversation wine."
