Velenosi Roggio del Filare Rosso Piceno Superiore 2019

Profound yet intense ripe nose with rich but fresh dark cherries, earth, cocoa powder, some violet extract and fresh figs. Concentrated, full-bodied and packed with fresh blackberries, licorice and dark cherries, but nothing heavy. Juicy and long with fine, melted-chocolate tannins. Extremely heavy bottle. Drink or hold. Score - 94. (jamessuckling.com, Oct. 5, 2022) Profound yet intense ripe nose with rich but fresh dark cherries, earth, cocoa powder, some violet extract and fresh figs.
