Tasting Notes

Colour

apricot

air Nose

the wine is a bit more discreet than in the Bolgheri here but the whole is a little more exuberant, which means that there’s a bigger maltiness (obviously). Nice oak, vanilla and hints of blood oranges. Somewhat rounder and heavier than the Bolgheri

restaurant Palate

exactly the same happens on the palate. Bigger, oakier, maybe a tad bitterish now (un-sugared green tea, rubber). A wilder version – maybe it’s the Sangiovese

timer Finish

very long, liquoricy, with big notes of blackcurrant leaves tea invading your palate. Well, this is big, to say the least
