Socré 2013

Barbaresco DOCG

The nose is aromatic, incisive and quite powerful. It reveals notes of licorice, Cuben pepper and flowers associated with notes of crème de cassis, blackberry as well as a subtle hint of redcurrant jam and spices. The palate is fruity, well-balanced and offers a beautiful mineral frame, tension, a beautiful structure, a beautiful finesse, suavity, a slight freshness as well as a slight gourmandise. In th emouth this wine expresses notes of boysenberry, crème de cassis and small notes of redcurrant jam associated with a subtle hint of fleshy blueberry, licorice, caramel, toasted oak, sweet spices and cardamom. Tannins are well-built. Good length. Beautiful fine and gourmand persistence.
