Excellent example of Sangiovese di Romagna Superiore. The wine shows a
beautiful and brilliant ruby red color, very firm, moderate
transparency. At the nose reveals a great personality, very rich in
clean and elegant aromas. There can be perceived good and intense
aromas of black cherry jam, plum jam, Cherry macerated in alcohol,
strawberry and blackberry followed by pleasing aromas of peach,
chocolate, licorice, dried rose, vanilla and black pepper. In the mouth
shows a good body and a tannic attack, however well balanced by alcohol
and roundness. Good correspondence with the fruit aromas perceived by
the nose. Wine's finish is persistent with long and pleasing flavors of
black cherry jam, plum jam and blackberry. Simply a great wine which
will be capable of giving excellent satisfactions in future. This wine
is aged in cask for 18 months and 6 months in barrique followed by 12
months in bottle. |
