Score: ✧✧✧✧✭ |
The wine shows an intense ruby red color and nuances of ruby red, little
transparency. The nose denotes good personality with intense, clean,
pleasing, refined and elegant aromas which start with hints of plum and
black cherry followed by aromas of blueberry, violet, tobacco, licorice,
cinnamon, vanilla and hints of cocoa. In the mouth has good correspondence
to the nose, a slightly tannic attack and however well balanced by
alcohol, full body, intense flavors, good tannins, agreeable. The finish
is persistent with flavors of plum, black cherry and blueberry. A well
made wine. La Grola ages in cask for 17 months and for 11 months in
bottle.
