8 mins confidence: 
strawberry red Explanation: corbezzolo is a strawberry tree typical of the Maremma region and other regions around Italy so I deduct that rosso corbezzolo means strawberry red or the color of strawberries. I have translated several guidebooks carrying these "corbezzoli" and have always translated the word this way. |
