Antonio Perrino Testalonga Rossese di Dolceacqua 2005




Elegant red that you declare immediately to the nose, without much circumlocution.

A walk in Arcagna hills breathing juniper and resin, Mediterranean sensations, humus and dry leaves. And then cherry and currant, flowers, herbs, with a fresh spices, enclosed in a balmy caress.

By taste, the continuation, really beautiful, what is expressed on the nose, with punctually acidity and dynamic expansion, including pleasant spiciness - cinnamon especially - and red fruit, leather and licorice.

Convincing extension taste and strong persistence, with incisive hints of savory minerality salty, mixed with eucalyptus and tobacco.

Yet another confirmation, if anyone still had some doubts, about the Rossese's potential aging. At least the Testalonga’s.
