ORGANOLEPTIC PROFILE: Taurasi is a red wine of great tradition with a decisive and consistent ruby color. Refined olfactory framework traced by fruity perceptions, cherry and plum, spicy notes of clove and pepper, structured with tannin to monopolize the taste that slowly gives way to the acidic drive and very pleasant smoky and vegetal flavors.
