Red Wine |
Score: ✧✧✧✧✭ |
Villa Gresti shows an intense ruby red color and nuances of garnet red,
little transparency. The nose reveals intense, clean, pleasing, refined and
elegant aromas that start with hints of black cherry, black currant and
plum followed by aromas of blueberry, violet, vanilla, tobacco, bell
pepper, green bean, chocolate, mace and eucalyptus. The mouth has good
correspondence to the nose, a properly tannic attack and however balanced
by alcohol, full body, intense flavors, pleasing roundness. The finish is
persistent with flavors of black cherry, black currant and plum. Villa
Gresti ages for 12 months in barrique followed by 12 months of aging in
bottle. |
