Taurasi Riserva Vigna Olmo DOCG (Linea Tradizione)
The Taurasi Vigno Olmo is luminous ruby red; dense and weighty in the glass. Great complexity on the nose, with initial hints of wild berries and dry flowers, followed by tertiary scents of bark, tobacco and liquorice. The palate is characterized by balance and softness.
