The nose denotes intense, clean, pleasing and refined aromas which start with hints of plum, black cherry and dried violet followed by aromas of raspberry, vanilla, tobacco, chocolate, leather, mace and menthol. The mouth has good correspondence to the nose, a properly tannic attack and however balanced by alcohol, full body, intense flavors, pleasing roundness. The finish is persistent with flavors of plum, black cherry and raspberry. This Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Riserva ages for 24 months in cask.
