Paolo Bea Montefalco Rosso Riserva Pipparello 2016

Dark and earthy, with crushed herbs, tar and dried cherry building intensity on the palate. Piercing acidity cuts through the wine's dense core while firm tannins provide backbone. The finish shows remarkable persistence. Staining fruit and mineral notes that seem to evolve endlessly. A complete expression of Montefalco that captures everything compelling about the 2016 vintage. Drink 2024-2040.
