Score: ✧✧✧✧✧ |
Lupicaia shows an intense ruby red color and nuances of ruby red, little
transparency. The nose reveals intense, clean, pleasing, refined and
elegant aromas which start with hints of black cherry, plum and black
currant followed by aromas of blueberry, violet, vanilla, tobacco,
licorice, cocoa, leather, mace and eucalyptus. The mouth has excellent
correspondence to the nose, a tannic attack and however balanced by
alcohol, full body, intense flavors, agreeable. The finish is very
persistent with long flavors of black cherry, plum and black currant.
Lupicaia ages for 18 months in barrique. |
