Flight 3 (1 Note)

  • 2009 Castello di Amorosa La Castellana 90 Points

    USA, California, Napa Valley

    Ruby red color with inviting cassis, black cherry, cedarwood, and dried rose aromas. On the palate, it's medium bodied and persistent with vibrant acidity, and dusty well integrated sweet tannins. It shows cassis, blackberry, and spice flavors underscored by an appealing minerality. Drinking well now, but should be even better with aging!
