Lazio Rosso IGT 2012, 13.5%. Bottle tasted in November 2014.
Petit Verdot grapes aged in small oak barrels.
It is quite unusual to find wines made with pure Petit Verdot, as in central Italy is just used for blends.
This was a wine fresh in the mouth, with soft tannins, and scents of black currants, but a little green. I loved it but I imagine it's not for everyone...

15/20 (84/100)

Вареные вишни, черный чай, цедра лимона, тело несколько легковатое, суховатые танины, просто.
