Score: ✧✧✧✧ |
The wine shows a brilliant golden yellow color and nuances of straw yellow,
very transparent. The nose reveals intense, clean, pleasing and refined
aromas which start with hints of toasted wood, banana and plum followed by
aromas of hawthorn, honey, mineral, banana, apple, ripe peach and
grapefruit. In the mouth has good correspondence to the nose, a crisp
attack and pleasing smoothness, however balanced by alcohol, good body,
intense flavors. The finish is persistent with flavors of apple, plum and
banana. Illivio ages in barrique for about 10 months followed by at least
16 months of aging in bottle.
