Tormaresca Aglianico - Cabernet 2000
Puglia, ItalyTormaresca, the estate, is composed of two properties: a 100-hectare (247-acre) estate located in the Castel del Monte D.O.C. region, 40 miles from the Adriatic Sea; and a 500-hectare (1,235- acre) estate near San Pietro Vernotico, closer to the sea in the Salento DOC region. Tormaresca, the wine, has an open warm inviting black licorice and menthol aromas. It's super soft on entry with more licorice, and this time, mixed with peppery raspberry fruit and just a dusting of dry tannins in the finish. Grilled pork chops would help smooth out the finish. This is New World style from Old Italy and it works. Good value.Tasted: 01 March 2003Tasted by: Stuart TobePrices:| BC | $11.95 | 750ml |
