Petit Verdot 2005

Pietra Pinta (Italy)

Petit Verdot
Red Wine	Score: ✧✧✧

This Petit Verdot shows an intense ruby red color and nuances of ruby red, little transparency. The nose denotes intense, clean and pleasing aromas which start with hints of black cherry, plum and blueberry followed by aromas of blackberry, raspberry and cyclamen. The mouth has good correspondence to the nose, a slightly tannic attack and pleasing crispness, however balanced by alcohol, good body, intense flavors. The finish is persistent with flavors of plum and blueberry. Part of this wine ages in barrique for 6 months.
