Community Tasting Notes (1) Avg Score: 87 points

  • Near the border of Emilia-Romagna, this fruit comes from a 600m site that has been farmed BIO since 1999. Darker core than the Il Pozzo tasted before it, the Frascole opens with a nose of ham and mustard sandwich (really), and after some swirling, soil, herbs and red fruits appear. Medium-bodied, fresh. Most would probably find this too dry, perhaps even austere. At the end of the day, this is missing fruit, and character. I appreciate the BIO effort, but the formula comes up lacking in this case. 14,0% abv.
