Frescobaldi Pietraregia dell Ammiraglia Riserva 2008

Maremma, Tuscany, ItalySmoky, meaty, prune, leather, coffee, black berry, roasted mushroom, earthy, liquorice aromas. Full, round, fresh, slightly chunky palate with good concentration. Peppery, licorice, smoky, prune, black berry, and resin, cedar, tobacco, leather and roast meat flavours with a touch of vanilla and coffee on the finish. A bit youthful, could use a few years to round out or try with beef or boar stew.Tasted: 20 February 2012Tasted by: Stuart TobePrices:
