Score: ✧✧✧ |
The wine shows an intense straw yellow color and nuances of straw yellow,
very transparent. The nose reveals a clear aroma of toasted wood as well
as pleasing aromas of banana, hawthorn, coffee, pear and vanilla. In the
mouth has good correspondence to the nose, with the flavor of toasted wood
clearly perceivable, a round attack however balanced, good body and
intense flavors. The finish is persistent with flavors of toasted wood,
coffee and banana. Villa di Chiesa ferments in barrique and ages for 5-8
months in barrique followed by an aging of at least 2 months in bottle.
