Score: ✧✧✧✭ |
The wine shows a pale straw yellow color and nuances of straw yellow, very
transparent. The nose denotes intense, clean and pleasing aromas which
start with an evident aroma of wood followed by aromas of hawthorn, pear,
apple, pineapple, broom, lemon and plum. In the mouth has good
correspondence to the nose, a crisp attack however well balanced by
alcohol, good body, intense flavors. The finish is persistent with flavors
of apple, pear, plum and toasted wood. Edèlmio ferments in barrique and
ages in the same barrique for about one year followed by an aging in
bottle of at least six months.
