Characteristics of Lungarotti Rubesco Vigna Monticchio

Vigna Monticchio Rubesco rosso Riserva monumental wine, generosity and extension, elegance and detail. A whispered and very deep finesse especially on the palate, a dense texture and splendid consistency. On the nose it presents an unmistakable crunchy fruit which develops into flavors of currant and fresh wild cherry, freesia and carnation flowers, cinnamon, blond tobacco and mace. In the mouth it is bursting, the silky tannin caresses the mouth and the elegant play between freshness and flavor makes it enveloping and highly drinkable. The finish is bold and has a long aromatic trail.
