Red Wine	Score: ✧✧✧✧✭

The wine shows an intense ruby red color and nuances of garnet red, moderate transparency. The nose reveals good personality with elegant, refined, clean and very pleasing aromas of black cherry, strawberry jam, raspberry jam, plum jam and violet followed by good aromas of cinnamon, chocolate, licorice, thyme and vanilla. In the mouth has good correspondence to the nose, a slightly tannic attack however well balanced by alcohol, intense flavors and full body. The finish is persistent with pleasing and clean flavors of plum, raspberry and strawberry. A very well made wine. Progetto Prime Donne ages for two years in cask.
