Rosso Nobile Alla Nocciola 75cl
Think of the last spoon of a really good chocolate-hazelnut dessert, then put it in a wine glass. That's this. A deep ruby German red, sweetened and spun through with creamy hazelnut, so it drinks more like pudding than plonk. Pour it chilled after dinner when you want one indulgent thing and zero effort. We'll get it to your door any hour.
The nose hits you first: warm roasted hazelnut and nougat sitting over dark, ripe red fruit. On the tongue it's full and silky, properly sweet, with that nutty creaminess rolling into plummy red-grape juiciness. Low on bite, easy on the alcohol at 10%, it finishes long and toasty like the last bite of a hazelnut praline. Not a serious sipping red. A treat, and it knows it.
The details
How to serve it
Serve it chilled, around 8 to 10C. A spell in the fridge tightens up the sweetness and makes the hazelnut pop. Pour into a regular wine glass, or honestly a small tumbler works fine since this is a cosy, after-dinner kind of drink. Sip it neat as a dessert on its own, or pour it over a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a quick affogato move. No need to decant or fuss. Just chill and enjoy.
Pairs well with
Where it's from
It comes out of Germany, from the Rosso Nobile range, a line that's made a name for itself doing one thing well: taking a sweet red wine and infusing it with proper dessert flavours like chocolate, nougat and here, hazelnut. The house behind it sits in Nuremberg, a city long famous for its festive spiced wines, so this nutty, after-dinner style is right in their wheelhouse. The Nocciola (that's Italian for hazelnut) is the cult favourite of the bunch.
