Score: ✧✧✧✧✭ |
This Roero Riserva shows a brilliant ruby red color and nuances of garnet
red, moderate transparency. The nose denotes intense, clean, pleasing,
refined and elegant aromas which start with hints of cherry, plum and dried
violet followed by aromas of raspberry, rose, vanilla, tobacco, cocoa,
blackberry, pink pepper and menthol. The mouth has good correspondence to
the nose, a tannic attack and however balanced by alcohol, full body,
intense flavors, pleasing crispness. The finish is persistent with flavors
of cherry, raspberry and plum. This Roero Riserva ages for 12 months in
cask and barrique followed by 12 months of aging in bottle. |
