Tasted Monday, September 3, 2012 by Zweder with 214 views
We knew the theme, but all wines were tasted blind.
In the bouquet yellow fruits, candy and blossom. On the palate candy, cherry candy stick, minerals and bitterness. On the palate friendly and easy going, kiwi, some grasses. Leaves the mouth dry after swallowing. A bit warmer more acidity and bitterness appeared. Special wine just above basic, but interesting and not unpleasant.

Yellow fruits, flowers and some perfume in the bouquet. On the palate slightly sparkling in the start, bananas, ripe pineapple, pear and blossom. Round with a nice balance between sweetness and acidity and a good length. A nice and friendly wine.

Some smoky impressions and citrus like grapefruit in the bouquet. On the palate floral, yellow fruits, a bit fat, some sweetness and also good acidity and some bitterness. Good freshness in a medium long finish. Reading some other notes here I can tell that in Italy the wine costs around $10 and for that price the wine delivers a good qpr.

Light red with a carmine rim. In the bouquet concentrated dried fruits, some VA, sweet spices and later also smoke and cassis. On the palate chocolate, sweet spices like cinnamon, coffee, toast aromas, soft tannin and quite much alcohol. The sweetness and acidity is a little out of balance in favor of the sweetness. But the latter makes sense, because the grapes are dried in the wind for three months.

Deep dark red. In the bouquet concentrated dark cherries, very ripe red berries and a bit of brandy. On the palate very ripe fruits; mostly cherries, licorice and laurel. The wine has firm acidity and tannin. Still quite youthful.

Fairly light red with a carmine edge. The bouquet is a bit reticent, dusty, cherries and sweet spices. It has a juicy start with red fruits, sweet spices like cinnamon, some chocolate, earthiness, soft bitterness and elegant acidity. The tannin is firm and just a bit drying in the finish. Firm alcohol as well.

Fairly light red with a carmine edge. In the bouquet a lot of clove and ether as well as very ripe fruits. The ether blows off after a while. On the palate ripe fruits, herbs and sweet spices, coffee and chocolate. A juicy and well balanced wine with good acidity and some pleasant sweetness.

Fairly light carmine red. Some earthiness and mint. Pleasant acidity and firm tannin which is a bit drying. Good length. Is still a bit locked and needs a few more years of ageing. Until 2016? 89+

In the bouquet apple and bananas. On the palate the yellow fruits dominate, there is sweet yellow apple as well as some fennel. The wine is full bodied and it has good acidity, but is nevertheless quite basic. An ok wine though.
