Score: ✧✧✧✧✭ |
This wine shows a deep ruby red color and nuances of ruby red, little
transparency. The nose denotes clean, pleasing, refined and elegant aromas
of black cherry, strawberry, blueberry, plum and cyclamen followed by
pleasing aromas of carob, chocolate, bell pepper and vanilla. In mouth
reveals a slightly tannic attack however well balanced by alcohol, good
correspondence to the nose, intense flavors and full body. The finish is
persistent with pleasing and clean flavors of black cherry, raspberry and
blueberry. A well made wine. Conte Bolani ages for 12 months in barrique.
