This wine shows a brilliant ruby red color and nuances of ruby red,
moderate transparency. The nose reveals intense, clean, pleasing, refined
and elegant aromas which start with hints of blackberry, black cherry and
plum followed by aromas of blueberry, violet, licorice, tobacco, vanilla
and hints of cocoa, menthol and nutmeg. 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. The finish
is persistent with flavors of blackberry, black cherry and plum. A well
made wine. San Lorenzo Rosso ages in barrique for 10 months. |
