Brachetto has wonderful aromas of black raspberry and black cherry with notes of tar, clove and flowers such as violets or orchids. The wine is medium-bodied, generally with a trace of sweetness (a few are medium-sweet) and is usually lightly sparkling or what the Italians call frizzante. If that doesn't sound appealing enough, consider this; alcohol is low, usually 5.5 percent! Combine that moderate degree of alcohol along with the fresh, fruity, floral aromas and you have a wine that is perfect with fresh fruit or chocolate as an after-dinner treat. This is wonderful the year round, but it is especially charming in summertime. Do yourself a favor and enjoy some fresh strawberries with a glass of Brachetto. The Braida focuses on raspberries and cherries with a delicate off-dry finish. Some producers are trying to find new ways to promote this wine; certainly the deep red color will have some thinking of Valentine's Day or Christmastime. This would be a nice finish to a holiday dinner (plum pudding or a plum tart, anyone?). You could even try one of the richer examples with turkey, goose or pork at a holiday dinner.
