Taste Block

Tasting Notes

Aromas of ripe blackberry and plum are layered with cocoa, sweet spice, and a hint of dried herbs. The palate is medium to full-bodied and supple, balancing rich dark fruit with soft tannins and moderate acidity. The finish is smooth and fruit-forward, leaving a warm, gently spiced impression.

Pairing Block

Food Pairing

The wine’s ripe fruit, moderate tannins, and balanced acidity make it perfect for everyday, savory dishes rather than highly structured or heavily spiced fare. It pairs naturally with cured meats, grilled sausages, and salumi, where acidity cuts through fat and refreshes the palate. Tomato-based pastas, pizza, and risotto with sausage are reliable matches, as are roasted poultry, pork, and grilled vegetables with herbs or olive oil. Avoid very spicy dishes or aggressively tannic meats, which can overwhelm the wine’s supple structure. 

Producer Block

About the Producer

FUSO is a collaborative wine project based in Italy that focuses on sourcing organically farmed fruit from small growers and producing wines that reflect regional traditions while remaining accessible in style. The project was developed by the natural wine importer Portovino, which works with growers throughout Italy who farm vineyards without synthetic chemicals and emphasize minimal-intervention cellar practices. Rather than representing a single estate, FUSO operates as a network of small producers, with each wine highlighting a particular region and grape variety.
