Pignolo - Matteo 1° Guerra Albano DOC / Udine-Friuli 2008
Bottle
$126.10
This old variety originates in Friuli. Cultivated by the Benedictine monks in 1000 CE in the vineyards of the Abbey of Rosazzo. The last two remaining vines at the Abbey were saved from certain extinction thanks to recovery work done since 1978. The grapes of exceptional rarity and refinement produce a “luxurious” wine for ageing – as described by Dalmasso in 1930 – tannic and characterised by an intense bouquet. The production of this wine is very limited, in fact there are only 2500 bottles produced per year. Guerra Albano Pignolo has aromas of ripe red berries, blueberries and notes of spice. The palate is full and round with layers of fruit and tannins finishing with subtle oak characters. It is well suited to red meat and game dishes or aged hard cheeses.

Nero di Velluto Negroamaro, made with partially dried grapes for around 30 days, similar to the Amarone wine, is an enticing wine which shows an amazing stewed fruit bouquet as well as some notes of sweet almonds and spice. The palate is big yet round and velvety while the finish is packed with juicy fruit, smooth tannins and somewhat lingering savory characters.

At La Rosa The Strand we make traditional Roman style thin crust pizza. The dough prepared and rested for up to 48 hours prior to baking in our stone ovens. This is the time honored, artisanal method of preparing classic Neapolitan style pizza. The natural 48 hour fermentation is the healthiest way of eating pizza; as the sugar and salt in the dough are dissolved by the flour in the slowest possible way requiring the least amount of yeast.
