Score: ✧✧✧✧ |
The wine shows an intense ruby red color and nuances of garnet red,
moderate transparency. The nose denotes intense, clean, pleasing, refined
and elegant aromas which start with hints of dried violet and dried plum
followed by aromas of black cherry, blueberry, blackberry, licorice,
tobacco, vanilla and hints of chocolate. In the mouth has good
correspondence to the nose, a slightly tannic attack and however well
balanced by alcohol, good body, intense flavors, good tannins, agreeable.
The finish is persistent with flavors of plum, black cherry and
blackberry. A well made wine. Palazzo Altesi ages for about 12 months in
barrique and for 3 months in bottle.
