The wine shows an intense ruby red color and nuances of garnet red, little transparency. The nose denotes intense, clean, pleasing, refined and elegant aromas that start with hints of black cherry and plum followed by aromas of blackberry, violet, licorice, vanilla, tobacco, cinnamon, chocolate, black pepper and eucalyptus. The mouth has good correspondence to the nose, a slightly tannic attack and good roundness, however well balanced by alcohol, full body, intense flavors, good tannins. The finish is persistent with flavors of black cherry, plum and blackberry. A well made wine. Fiore ages for 12 months in cask followed by 6 months of aging in bottle.
