Score: ✧✧✧✧✭ |
Avvoltore 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, black currant and
plum followed by aromas of blueberry, violet, blackberry, vanilla, rose,
tobacco, cinnamon, chocolate and menthol. The mouth has good correspondence
to the nose, a tannic attack and however balanced by alcohol, full body,
intense flavors, agreeable. The finish is persistent with flavors of black
currant, black cherry and plum. Avvoltore ages for 12 months in barrique
followed by 6 months of aging in bottle. |
