Costa Vecchia shows an intense ruby red color and nuances of ruby red, little transparency. The nose denotes intense, clean and pleasing aromas that start with hints of black cherry and blueberry followed by aromas of plum, violet, vanilla, blackberry and carob. The mouth has good correspondence to the nose, a slightly tannic attack and however balanced by alcohol, good body, intense flavors. The finish is persistent with flavors of black cherry and blueberry. Costa Vecchia ages for 8 months in cask.
