Community Tasting Note

TannicBeast Likes this wine:

Tuesday, January 23, 2018 - Italian Wine Scholar Class at the Texas Wine School. this wine is crazy good after all these years. 100% Gaglioppo. Clear, bright amber, medium (+) in intensity. The nose is clean, with aromas of red fruit (cherries), caramel, and botanical herbs. The nose is medium in intensity and developed. The palate is dry, but with a hint of residual sugar. The palate is quite complex and still fresh, with flavors of "fruit salad cup" including strawberries, black cherries, cranberries and grapefruit. The finish or red liquorice is slightly bitter and palate-cleansing. The alcohol is medium at 13%. The acidity is medium. There is a hint of tannins. The minerality is medium (+) and helps provide some structure. Balanced and harmonious, medium bodied, with a moderately rich mouthfeel, medium (+) flavor intensity and medium finish. This is a relly pleasant rose'; a lot of bang for the buck. Drink now, not intended for further aging.
