Borgo di Colloredo 2001 Gironia (Biferno Rosso)

Country: Italy / Gironia
Variety: Red Blend Southern Italy
Winery: Borgo di Colloredo / Biferno Rosso

This blend of Montepulciano and Aglianico offers deep notes of resin, spice, plum, black fruit, cherry and root beer. The wine has a slightly raw quality with nervous tannins that are characteristic of both grape varieties but many years in the bottle have softened them.
