Popped and poured, consumed over three days; best on day two and three. The 2017 Rosso pours a brilliant garnet color with a translucent core and a watery rim. Medium viscosity with very little to no staining of the tears. No signs of sediment or particles. On the nose, the wine is medium intensity. Redolent with cherries, red rope licorice, dusty earth, dried herbs, a slight touch of baking spices, and red flowers. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the red cherry fruits, green herbs and baking space. There’s also a bit of bergamot and black tea. The finish is long and very delicious. Overall, a wine of freshness too. Another beauty by a very underrated producer.
