Score: ✧✧✧✧✭ |
This wine shows a brilliant ruby red color and nuances of garnet red,
moderate transparency. The nose reveals intense, clean, pleasing, refined
and elegant aromas which start with hints of black cherry and plum followed
by aromas of strawberry, raspberry, pomegranate, violet, vanilla, tobacco,
licorice, cocoa, eucalyptus, mace and hints of black pepper. In the mouth
has good correspondence to the nose, a slightly tannic attack and
appreciable crispness, however balanced by alcohol, full body, intense
flavors, good tannins, agreeable. The finish is persistent with flavors of
black cherry, plum and raspberry. A well made wine. Bohemi ages in cask for
18 months. |
