Score: ✧✧✧✧ |
Il Drago e le Otto Colombe shows a brilliant ruby red color and nuances of
garnet red, moderate transparency. The nose reveals intense, clean,
pleasing and refined aromas which start with hints of black cherry, plum
and blackberry followed by aromas of blueberry, dried violet, vanilla,
cocoa, black currant and menthol. The mouth has good correspondence to the
nose, a tannic attack and however balanced by alcohol, good body, intense
flavors, pleasing roundness. The finish is persistent with flavors of black
cherry, plum and blackberry. Il Drago e le Otto Colombe ages for 18 months
in cask. |
