Corte Ottone Riserva 2013
Puglia, ItalyBrindisi is a port city within the wine region of Puglia, where negroamaro is king. The black grape makes up the majority of this full-bodied blend, along with malvasia nera and sangiovese. Dense vanilla, smoked wood, subtle cloves colours the super ripe black fruit. Thick in the mouth, but easily propped up by supple, sweet tannins. Dark chocolate cherries linger on the spicy and warming finish, even though this is a pleasantly surprising 13 percent alcohol. This is drinking well now (with rich ragu) but will merge some of the rough edges with additional time in bottle.Tasted: 24 January 2017Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| BC | $18.99 | 750ml | BCLS |
