This wine shows an intense ruby red color and nuances of garnet red,
moderate transparency. The nose reveals intense, clean, pleasing, refined
and elegant aromas which start with hints of cherry, plum and raspberry
followed by aromas of strawberry, rose, blueberry, licorice, vanilla,
tobacco, chocolate, leather, pink pepper and mace. The mouth has good
correspondence to the nose, a slightly tannic attack and pleasing
crispness, however well balanced by alcohol, good body, intense flavors,
agreeable. The finish is persistent with flavors of cherry, raspberry and
strawberry. A well made wine. Nero al Tondo ages in barrique for 12 months.
