Vibrans 2020

Ruby red with purple reflections, dense in appearance and medium depth. The color looks rich but not over-extracted, with clear contours at the rim of the glass and a hint of dark light, suggesting fruity concentration and sufficient extract without appearing clumsy.

The nose shows black cherry and ripe blackberry upfront, accompanied by roasted coffee beans and black olives, a hint of liquorice rounds off the bouquet. The fruit is embedded in subtle wood notes that strengthen the dark fruit without overpowering it.

Bold but easy to drink! Dark berries are the main flavours of this Nero di Troia. The aroma of roasted coffee beans, black olives and a small pinch of liquorice are also present. The charmingly integrated tannin provides the structure in the taste.

The grapes were hand-picked in mid-October and spontaneously fermented in large oak barrels. This Nero di Troia also underwent malolactic fermentation (MLA = biological acid reduction). The wine then matured for 12 months in oak barrels and a further 6 months in the bottle.
