If you're in love, it's lovely to surprise the person you love with a special gift: a romantic dinner, maybe cooked with your own hands at home, paired with a good glass of wine.
Or imagine a romantic evening in front of a sunset, or by the fireplace with a snowy landscape or a beautiful lake in view, sipping a glass of Italian sparkling wine. Can you imagine anything more romantic?
Five wines, five ways to say it
Five perfect wines for a romantic day
1. Vernaccia di San Gimignano
Vernaccia di San Gimignano is a delicate white wine, straw-yellow with gold highlights. Its aroma is penetrating, fresh and fruity, and its flavor delicate and fruity — perfect with fish, prized shellfish, fish soups and risottos. A delicate way to say "I love you" to someone we've only just met, who has already gone straight to the heart.
2. Brunello di Montalcino
Brunello di Montalcino is a red wine, fine ruby red that turns garnet with aging. Its aroma is intense and enveloping, with hints of violet and berries. It pairs beautifully with spicy cheese, noble game and pasta dishes with meat sauce. A wine that inflames the spirit — a passionate, overwhelming way to say "I love you."
3. Vin Beato
Vin Beato is a dessert wine, perfect with sweet, typical Tuscan biscuits: the cantuccini. Its perfume is ample, with aromas of fruit, spices and vanilla, and its flavor unique and persistent, hard to imitate. A sweet way to say "I love you, and I will always be by your side."
4. Spumante
Spumante is a sparkling wine with a fresh, fruity taste. Its bubbles make it perfect as an aperitif, as an accompaniment to sweet or savory snacks, or after dinner to toast together. An elegant way to say "I love you, and every day with me will be unique."
5. Terrestre
Terrestre is a very fine wine, deep dark red in color, from a unique blend of five grapes: Pinot Noir, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Syrah. The blend itself is kept secret by the winemakers, and given the wine's prestige and the excellent quality of its grapes, production is limited to a few numbered bottles. A bottle of Terrestre is the perfect way to say, "I love you — marry me."
