When I visit the trattorie of Rome, I always look for a tasty Cesanese del Piglio, the unofficial Roman Red that is much more satisfying than the Frascati white. Here's one that is superb and crazy cheap for what you get. A delightful, aromatic red made by natural winemaker Paolo Perinelli, this 100% Cesanese wine bursts with red cherries, red raspberries, marzipan and wild country sweet herbs. The finish on Paolo's wine is sumptuously long. Pair this with classic Roman pasta dishes like my porky favorite Bucatini all'Amatrician, grilled sausages, or roast wild boar

Bing cherries and cranberries, baked prunes, light violets, fennel, black earth. Nice acidity, I'd pair with fried pork chops, porchetta, maybe a fatty rib eye seasoned with black pepper and grilled over hardwood coals. Tasty and a great price.
