Very intense red color and garnet shadows in the areas of least thickness.
The nose is imposing and surprising at the same time. To the scents of dark berries, dead and blueberry in particular. Follow the dried rose petals, among the flowers. The forest as a whole, with bark and fallen leaves, and juniper berries. Spices also include black pepper and cinnamon. Chocolate is in evidence. To be more precise, not hints of generic dark chocolate, but of the Boer.
On the palate it is structured and full-bodied. Enveloping and persuasive she manages to be Father and Mother together. Affectionate and severe, he has achieved a goal in achieving the balance between hardness and softness. Polyalcohols, pseudo-heat expressed by the alcohol content, and a slight sugary residue, defend the softness. In terms of hardness, the tannins collected when they were ripe, and the small part extracted from the wood of the barrels, make the presence felt, but gracefully. Also minerality is to be considered valuable. The finish is very persistent.
A great Apulian wine. Designed in the style of the exuberant, it manages to be gracefully.
