Tasting Notes & Wine Ratings By James Suckling :
A ripe and juicy red with notes of poached plums, dried blueberries, mushrooms, spice box and charcuterie. It’s full-bodied with berry-soaked tannins and a flavorful finish. From organically grown grapes. Drink now or hold. Read More
The name of this wine captures the essence of historical pagan rituals offering the fruits and crops of the land. It shares that sense of deep connection to the territory and people.
IL PUGNALONE 2019
Taste and flavour profile
Ruby red colour with floral aromas of violet alongside dark fruits such as blackberry and cherry and closes on a spicy note of sweet tobacco. The wine is very approachable on the palate with a hint of spicy white pepper, firm tannins that are well integrated, and a soft round finish.
