Aromas of dried orange peel and cedar, as well as some chocolate and cedar undertones. Medium body, firm and silky tannins and good fruit. But the finish is a little fluid. Drink now.
This well-known estate has been labelling its wines from here with the Brunate name since 1958. The sweet, intense raspberry nose has purity of fruit and finesse. It's quite concentrated, with a sleek, seamless texture and considerable weight of fruit. Moderate tannins give some structure, though this is no heavyweight. Quite long.
La Morra. Tasted blind. Bottled in February 2018. Maturing ruby with bricky tinges. Concentrated sour-cherry nose and succulent sour-cherry fruit on the palate, with finely chiselled tannins. Truly lithe and with a long aromatic finish. 2018-2026
