WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
Il Bruciato 2023 isan intense rubyred color. The nose opens with sweet, captivating aromas of small ripe red fruit and plums that lead over to delicate spicy notes. The palate is full bodied yetat the same time delicate, powerfuland refined. A wine that is extremely easyto drink defined bysupple and well-concentrated tannins that impart dimension, persistence and balance.
TASTING NOTES:
The 2023 Il Bruciato boasts a dark purple hue and exudes baked aromas of plum, pie spice, balsamic, and rich earth. Full-bodied, the palate is generous and rounded, with supple ripe tannins providing a fleshy sensation through the finish. I would prefer to enjoy this while it retains some freshness over the near term. This vintage is a blend of 37% Cabernet Sauvignon, 28% Cabernet Franc, 19% Merlot, and the remainder Syrah and Petit Verdot.
