  Beautiful yellow red clear colour.
  Lovely intense perfume of violets, hyacints and a hint of liqourice. Mature balanced dry taste with a firm tannin backbone. Long finish. Fantastic wine with reindeer filets and mushroom risotto.

  Dark transparent red. Delicate nose, dark fruit and spices. In the mouth fresh red fruit and well balanced taste with spices and integrated mature oak.The wine is mature now, well structured and can be drunk with pleasure for at least 5 more years, medum to full bodied, really shining now. A super match with light to medium rich meat. A great wine in memory of Lucio Mastroberardino, who we all lost much too eary. A wonderful wine with potential!

  Balanced, consistent with recent notes. Drinking very well now. Why wait?

  This is drinking very well and has benefitted from a couple more years of bottle aging. The nose is clean and medium (+) to pronounced, with dried plum, sweet baking spices, tobacco leaf and smoke. The palate is dry, consistent with the nose, with medium acidity, tannin and alcohol. It is drinking very well now, and is approachable for a Taurasi. It has several more years left to go. A great effort and a great value.
