Rosso de Véo Umbria Rosso Sagrantino
Umbria, Italy
A massive departure from the Tenuta della Terre Nere Rosso that we started the evening with. Loads of dark cherry, brambles, and spiced meat. The aromas were wild. I was also picking up some volatile acidity but it really helped give some lift the massive amount of fruit. On the palate, more dark fruits, spices and dried herbs. Lip smacking finish. Bottle No. 0000213

A Viking grandpa, greets the palate like a big warrior demanding to be taken seriously. Kind of rough, but you don’t want to argue with him. Then he sits down, gives you a hug, and is sweet in the end. Thank you, Viking Grandpa.

There’s nothing quite like Bea’s wines and this was no exception. Bright fruit, animal, herbal, with perfect acidic lift. Tannins present but not overbearing. Great wine that will improve w a bit more time, I think.

Dec 16th, 2018Inky purple with ruby reflection. Sweet aroma: smoky nose of espresso, tobacco, plum, dried fruit, and kirsch liqueur. Some heat on the palate but overall light on its feet with a dusting of tannins.
