Score: ✧✧✧✧ |
The wine shows an intense ruby red color and nuances of garnet red,
moderate transparency. The nose reveals good personality with intense,
clean, pleasing and elegant aromas which start with hints of black cherry
and black pepper followed by good aromas of blueberry, plum, dried violet,
carob and pleasing hints of licorice and vanilla. In the mouth has good
correspondence to the nose, a slightly tannic attack and however balanced,
good body, intense flavors. The finish is persistent with flavors of black
cherry, plum and blueberry. This Aglianico ages in barrique for about 9
months followed by 9 months more of aging in bottle.
