Tenuta di Trinoro
Le Cupole Rosso Toscana Red Blend
Tuscany, Italy
2000 vintage in Imperial. Medium ruby edging on garnet. Pronounced aromas of red berry, red desiccated plums, dried fruits - figs and prunes and raisins. Hints of cinnamon and nutmeg and smokey aromas from the oak. Tertiary characteristics of earth, leather and meats. On the palate, the wine is medium plus body, medium tannins - lush, medium plus acidity and edging on a long fruity finish with an astringent tang. Alcohol is restrained and not dominant. The format has obviously kept the wine's development in check and this wine could have another five plus years ahead of it. Although it's not my style of wine, it's clearly a high quality effort.
