Score: ✧✧✧✭ |
This Rosso di Montepulciano shows an intense ruby red color and nuances of
ruby red, moderate transparency. The nose denotes intense, clean, pleasing
and refined aromas that start with hints of cherry, plum and raspberry
followed by aromas of violet, blueberry, strawberry and vanilla. The mouth
has good correspondence to the nose, a tannic attack and however balanced
by alcohol, good body, intense flavors, pleasing crispness. The finish is
persistent with flavors of cherry, plum and raspberry. This Rosso di
Montepulciano ages for 3 months in barrique followed by 3 months of aging
in bottle. |
