Santagostino Baglio Soria Igt 2006 Firriato
It seemed to everyone to be an impossible enterprise to improve on what was
considered the top of the top Sicilian red wines of the new generation. But we
have. It is even more intense and with a deep ruby red colour, beautiful notes of
mature red fruits, and an underlying hint of spices conferred by these
exceptional grapes. The palate notes the caressing elegant tannins that give it a
long, warm persistent finish, making it stand out in a world context. |
