2016 Rocca del Principe - Taurasi DOCG Aurelia (750ml)
92 Points
"The 2016 Taurasi Aurelia shows the more earthy and animal

characteristics of Taurasi, as musky black cherry gives way to savory herbs

and mineral tones, with balsamic spice and hints of sous bois. It floods the

palate with silky textures, which are quickly contrasted by sour cherry, yet

gaining energy and lift as vibrant acids stimulate the senses. The finish is

long and structured with an acid twang, showing all the qualities of a

young Taurasi that’s geared for the cellar, as its spicy red fruits slowly fade
