Cabreo Il Borgo 2008

The color is a compact and luminous ruby, while the nose has a fruity beginning with black cherry and blackberry and some slightly lactic notes. The bouquet then shifts darker tones of humus and earth, spice, slight whiffs of tobacco, ash and iron that chase distinct vegetal and balsamic nuances. The flavor is lively and savory. It enters with an energetic whiplash of acidity, perhaps too bold but sufficiently upheld by its extracts, a nice complexity. The tannins are elegant, not invasive, already delicate without any bitterness.
