Basilicata Rosso Nero Carbone 2019

Tasting Notes

The 2019 Nero Carbone is intense, displaying a wild blend of medicinal cherries and minty herbs complemented by hints of clove and rubbed sage. This sweeps across the palate with textures of pure silk, as ripe red and black fruits coast across a refreshing stream of lively acidity. A web of fine tannins and graphite mineral tones collect through the finish as the 2019 tapers off long, staining and beautifully balanced. The Nero Carbone is a varietal Aglianico that matures for one year in neutral barriques. Drinking window: 2026-2034. (Eric Guido,vinous.com,28 mai 2024)
