Riserva

Proprietor Princess Coralia Pignatelli della Leonessa only makes a Riserva in vintages with body and power sufficient to meet her standards. She also prefers drinking them when they are neither too old nor too young. Somewhere in between is this spot-on 2010. It proudly exhibits a developing bouquet of potpourri and baked fruits with iron, leather and terracotta. Never weighty, it gets richer as it sits in the glass, gradually enveloping the palate with dried brambly berries. Racy acidity injects energy and the tannins wield proper control. Sundried thyme and a rusty tang help to prolong the finish.
