Score: ✧✧✧✧ |
This Montefalco Rosso Riserva 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 black cherry, plum
and blackberry followed by aromas of violet, blueberry, black currant,
vanilla, tobacco, chocolate and menthol. The mouth has good correspondence
to the nose, a properly tannic attack and however balanced by alcohol, good
body, intense flavors, agreeable. The finish is persistent with flavors of
black cherry, plum and blackberry. Thish Montefalco Rosso Riserva ages for
18 months in cask, 3 months in cement tanks and for 12 months in bottle. |
