Tasting Notes

Seductive notes of black cherry and balsam, lifted by violet fragrance. Elegant, for Taurasi, yet with a confidence presence and the classic tannic grip of Aglianico. Will mature well. Medium bodied, grippy tannin, intriguingly dusty palate with a luscious finish of juicy black cherry fruit.
