Score: ✧✧✧✧✭ |
Aurente shows a pale golden yellow color and nuances of straw yellow, very
transparent. The nose reveals intense, clean, pleasing, refined and elegant
aromas which start with hints of banana, toasted wood and hazelnut followed
by aromas of acacia, apple, pear, vanilla, plum, praline, grapefruit,
butter and mineral. The mouth has good correspondence to the nose, a crisp
attack and however balanced by alcohol, good body, intense flavors,
pleasing roundness. The finish is persistent with flavors of banana, plum,
grapefruit and hazelnut. Aurente ferments and ages in barrique for 6 months
followed by 8 months of aging in bottle. |
