Score: ✧✧✧✧ |
Orcia Rosso Cenerentola shows an intense ruby red color and nuances of
garnet red, little transparency. The nose reveals intense, clean, pleasing
and refined aromas which start with hints of plum, black cherry and violet
followed by aromas of blackberry, vanilla, chocolate, cinnamon, tobacco,
mace and menthol. The mouth has good correspondence to the nose, a tannic
attack and however balanced by alcohol, good body, intense flavors,
pleasing roundness. The finish is persistent with flavors of plum, black
cherry and blackberry. Orcia Rosso Cenerentola ages for 12 months in cask
and barrique. |

Interesting wine, very Italian. The wine is made from the well known sangiovese and, at least to me, an obscure grape called folia tonda.
Good body with ripe tannins, plummy and full. You can smell flowers and fruit, plum and berries with charming scents of spices.
