Still to young I think. Tanine has some tard edges. Chocolate, tabaco, cherries, bayleaf. Full body, so I understand why I like this wine.

15.5/20 (89/100)

Мак, пряности, тост. Черные ягоды, выпечка. Тело полное, вкус насыщенный, ягодно, пирог с ягодами и маком. Корица и пряности в послевкусии.

Imagine walking into the dimly lit den of a Victorian era's gentleman. It's dark, robust, yet welcoming. Tobacco, leather, rich wood, spice and a bit of dust...all covered with brooding cherries and baked plums. The tannin structure is fantastic -- smooth, but very present.

Had with lasagna and the cheese softened the tannic edges. This reads like a modern wine that saw a fair amount of new oak.

I am always in the mood for an Italian wine. Vino Nobile is on the top of my list. These wines are made from this unique Sangiovese clone called Prugnolo Gentile. This Talosa reserve wine from 2016 is a great example. Complex layers of dark red fruit, perfectly infused tannins and then this unmistakable rusty iron minerality on the finish. A bit of an acquired taste but once you are hooked, you are hooked for life. We will definitely dive into these wines from Montepulciano on our Spoken Wines channel. Have you had a chance to check us out on our YouTube channel? Our latest story is about Hells Canyon winery. Did you know that Idaho had such fantastic wines??! You got to try them to believe it. www.spokenwines.com.

Excellent example of a Nobile, this is probably a bit young for it to really sing. Great pairing with the basil and buffalo mozzarella- stuffed ravioli, though...

Earthy, musty, woody aroma. Bright sour cherries. Dusty tannins. Hint of chocolate on the finish.
