La Querciolana Gamay de Boldrino 2022 – Colli del Trasimeno DOC

The nose is aromatic and fruity. It expresses the aromas of fresh strawberries and dried strawberries, black plum in the background, crushed wild strawberries, blackcurrant and prunes. We also find a smoky and toasted touch, even if the wine is not aged in barrels. The palate offers tension and lots of fresh fruit (wild strawberry, black plum, red plum, blackcurrant, wild strawberry, morello cherry, dried cherry). We find a fine spiciness (nutmeg), a touch of chocolate prunes, lilac and dried rose. Nice acidity, airiness and good bitterness. Very good integration of 16% alcohol. The finish is gourmand, with notes of morello cherry jam. Richness, but quite balanced by freshness and bitterness. The tannins are fine, but present and give good structure to the wine.
