Score: ✧✧✧✧ |
Nero d'Ombra shws an intense ruby red color and nuances of garnet red,
little transparency. The nose reveals intense, clean, pleasing and refined
aromas that start with hints of plum, black cherry and black currant
followed by aromas of dried violet, vanilla, chocolate, tobacco, licorice
and eucalyptus. 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 black cherry,
plum and black currant. Nero d'Ombra ages for 12 months in steel tanks, 12
months in barrique and for at least 12 months in bottle. |
