COSIMO TAURINO SALICE SALENTINO ROSSO RISERVA 2010

RATED 88 POINTS – WINE ENTHUSIAST

Negroamaro and 15-20% Malvasia Nera; it’s deep cherry ruby with black reflections and cherry rim. The bouquet is fresh, with prune berry fruit and some nutmeg mingled with prunes and deft acidity that is fairly bright, and some smoky underbrush. On the palate it’s bright, with lively red berry fruit supported by bright berry fruit acidity and by smooth sweet tannins that have a slight burr, and flow into a clean fresh fairly tart finish.
