Vivid pink. Aromas of red fruits, licorice and white flowers. Then big, rich, dense and spicy with slightly sweet flavors of pomegranate and watermelon. Finishes very juicy and long; this is still young and will age well. A blend of Nebbiolo, Vespolina and Croatina. (Ian D'Agata, Vinous, May 2019)

May 22nd, 2019Dark pink. Intense, spicy aromas of white flowers, redcurrant and herbs, with a violet top note. Juicy and penetrating, offering a smorgasbord of red fruit flavors and a hint of bitter orange peel, complicated by pepper nuances typical of the Vespolina variety. Multilayered and precise, the finish offers very good grip, repeating violet and red berry notes, and outstanding persistence. A blend of Nebbiolo, Vespolina and Croatina.

May 9th, 2022Terrific! Beautiful orangey color. Needs a decant to get rid of the frizzante. Fairly complex for a Rose! Glad I have more.

May 26th, 2021Dark pink, orange spice, red raspberry and a zing of pepper. With each mouthful you daydream...only to be grab by the finish and brought back to another enchanted mouthful. Pairs excellently with any Italian food.
