Wine with an impenetrable color, which leaves glimpse its ruby with barely hinted garnet reflections. Compact visually, with a significant olfactory impact that immediately detects a great complexity, with hints ranging from black cherry fruits and plum jams, up to spices and toasts. The taste is full, with good softness supported by a present acidity and elegant tannins. The persistence is long, with a range of fruit sensations ripe and jams and then turn towards the roasted coffee and cocoa. It goes well with rich and elaborate dishes such as stews, stews, game, hard or seasoned spun cheeses.

The 2016 Taurasi Cinque Querce wafts up with an earthy bouquet as underbrush and hints of tobacco give way to crushed stones and dried black cherries. This is velvety-smooth with vibrant acidity to balance as an elegant wave of dark red fruits slowly saturates toward the close. The 2016 finishes structured and remarkably long, staining the palate with primary concentration and a web of fine-grained tannins. This is a truly harmonious Taurasi Cinque Querce that no fan of Molettieri should be without.

Harmonious and finely detailed, this offers flavors of black plum reduction, dried fig and wild sage and thyme, with a savory underpinning of minerally iron and spices. Fluid and supple on the palate, showing a fine intersection of power and grace. Long, fresh finish. Drink now through 2036. 950 cases made.
