The wine shows a ruby red color with evident nuances of garnet red, moderate
transparency. The nose reveals a series of fruit aromas such as black cherry,
cherry, blueberry and plum followed by pleasing hints of black pepper, dried
rose, toasted and vanilla. A clean and pleasing nose. The mouth has
pleasing tannins well balanced by alcohol with slight flavors of black pepper,
very pleasing. The finish is persistent with evident hints of black cherry, plum
and blueberry as well as hints of black pepper. Radici Taurasi is aged for 24
months in cask followed by an aging in bottle for at least 12 months.
