Tasting Notes
The aromatic profile of this wine is extremely complex. Marasca and cherries in spirit, blackberry and wild berries, hints of undergrowth, tobacco, coffee, dark chocolate. A slight balsamic note makes the retronasal intriguing. In the mouth, it is ample, powerful, tannins still vibrant and well-integrated.
