"Reserve" means an extra year aging, a lot more for
me, having acquired, in 2005, directly from Dellapiana’s family cellar. Over the years - certainly the most effective and
fruitful for him - gave me a bottle in great shape, starting from the nose.
After three hours from the opening, the olfactory
perceptions are fresh and very clean and not too advanced.
It smells earthy, undergrowth and roots - china and
rhubarb - with withered flowers - rose and violet - a slightly fruit syrupy, but
still fleshy and appetizing - cherry, plum and raspberry - a fine mineral contour,
with notes of cinnamon.
The mouth is warm, elegant and decided, confirming
the symmetry with the nose gear. Subtly evolved flavors and lively acidity, tannins caressing
the palate and a centered balance alcohol, seal a sip rich, energetic and in harmonic
progression.
Very persistent, with intense references of licorice and goudron, leather and tobacco pipe.
Great satisfaction with roast lamb.
