Tasting notes
Deep brick-red colour. Fine nose. Much dark fruits, cherries, anise, roses and that tobacco/smokyness I find so typical of
Valtellinese wines. Powerful and concentrated in the mouth. Surprisingly young. I never have had luck with older Valtellinese
wines, but this is still mostly in it's primary fruity-stage. Acidic mouthfeel. Concentrated fruit. Fruit has dark berries, tobacco,
smoke. Quite tannic back. Very fine. Dare I say that it needs more time?
