Vigna Dacapo 2020 – Nizza

The wine has a ruby color of medium intensity. The nose offers refined concentration and depth. It expresses the aromas of ripe black fruits (black cherry, blackberry, wild black plum), juicy red fruits (wild strawberry, crushed raspberry, tart red cherry), associated with notes of wild mint, menthol, and a subtle spicy bouquet  (licorice, coriander seeds, a hint of crushed vanilla pod, clove), with delicate floral notes (violet, dried cornflower), chocolate with mint and torrefaction (mild coffee, toasted hazelnut). The palate is juicy, very fruity, open and straight. It offers freshness, precision, flavors of ripe fruit (strawberry, crushed raspberry, juicy morello cherry, blueberry, wild plum with its tannic touch, blackcurrant), a fine resinous hint of pine sap, notes of fresh flowers (violet, iris, rose) and sweet spices (licorice, ground cumin, a hint of vanilla). The tannins are a bit grainy and grippy. Beautiful acidity and freshness on the lingering finish.
