Masseria Piccirillo – Arausta 2022 – Terre del Volturno IGT Pallagrello Nero

A lovely nose of fairly ripe (but balanced) fruit and offers a certain purity of fruit, texture and a certain depth. There are notes of pulpy blackberry, creamy violet plum and small notes of roasted-elegant cherry, associated with touches of cornflower, a hint of flowers, rosemary, as well as discreet, almost balsamic hints and pepper Madagascar. The palate is fruity, juicy and presents a tangy frame, with creaminess in elegance, energy and precision. On the palate, this wine expresses notes of pulpy/juicy cherry, creamy cassis and small notes of raspberry, combined with fine touches of balsamic, a hint of bright/brilliant red fruits, as well as a hint of tonka bean, star anise and rosemary. Good length. A subtle touch of almost fresh pine needle in the background.
