TASTINGNOTES

To begin with, the nose opens with aromas of ripe black cherry, plum and dark berries. Additionally, notes of spice, leather and subtle oak add complexity. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and concentrated, with firm yet polished tannins and balanced acidity. Therefore, the finish is long, warm and persistent.

CELLARING & EXPERIENCE

Furthermore, the Uccelliera Rapace 2011 is well suited for further cellaring. While it shows impressive richness now after decanting, it will continue to evolve over the coming years. Because of its structure and depth, it pairs beautifully with grilled meats, game and rich Italian dishes. As a result, this vintage offers immediate enjoyment.
