Silene Olevano Romano Cesanese
Olevano Romano, Roma, Lazio, ItalyFirst Cesanese and it was surprisingly good. Never expect much good wine out of Latium, but this changed my opinion. Worked perfectly with homemade mushroom and ham pizza.

A nice surprise - my first Cesanese - needed a long hearty breath of fresh air upon opening but grew into a pleasant, charcuterie friendly wine. The nose, prior to aeration, was a bit too peed-on-cat-litter for me, and then grew into a pleasant smokey/maple bacon. Pleasant acid in the mid palette and the linger was equally acidic, yet pleasant. Nice surprise.
