Castorani - Podere Riserva | Montepulciano d'Abruzzo DOC | BIO
Red wine | Italy, ABRUZZO | 2018
De kleur is donker robijnrood, met violette reflecties. De neus geeft kruidig zoethout, aroma’s van bosvruchten en subtiele vanille, zelfs chocolade- en rozengeur. De smaak is vol en rijk, met zijdezachte tannines, zorgend voor elegantie. De nasmaak is intens en houdt lang aan, met rijp rood fruit en tabak.
