Torrevento 2009 Kebir Red (Puglia)

Country: Italy / Kebir
Variety: Red Blend Southern Italy
Winery: Torrevento / Puglia

A blend of Nero di Troia and Cabernet Sauvignon, this conveys aromas of scorched earth, cedar, black currant, leather and game. The palate is showing some age, offering dried plum, mature blackberry, graphite, roasted coffee bean and licorice but not much fruit richness. It finishes on an astringent note.
