Tasting Notes
Limpid, intense ruby red color with very slight, almost imperceptible, garnet textures, consistent.
On the olfactory examination it is intense, fine and with a wide and complex range of scents. Aromas reminiscent of a potpourri of red flowers, intertwined with hints of ripe red fruit. By further oxygenating the sample, intense hints of sweet spices and balsamic scents of Mediterranean scrub are released. The closure is with a hint of freshly ground black pepper.
The taste is well balanced in its components, soft, with a non-invasive and well-polished tannic texture. A wine destined to evolve further, but already now with a very intense olfactory persistence, ripe fruit and precious spices.
A wine to drink, but also to “forget” a few years in the cellar, in order to fully appreciate its evolution.
It is recommended in combination with a rabbit in porchetta with black olives.
