Score: ✧✧✧ |
The wine shows a pale straw yellow color and nuances of greenish yellow,
very transparent. The nose reveals intense, clean and pleasing aromas which
start with hints of hawthorn, apple and plum followed by aromas of pear,
broom and almond. The mouth has good correspondence to the nose, a crisp
attack and however balanced by alcohol, good body, intense flavors. The
finish is persistent with flavors of apple and plum. This Orvieto ages for
2 months in steel tanks. |
