Rubesco Riserva 2017 Vigna Monticchio Torgiano Rosso Riserva DOCG Lungarotti
Elegant and solidly structured, it has a deep ruby color and a complex aroma reminiscent of morello cherry and blackberry, delicate references to violet and light mentholated notes and a spicy finish. Highly concentrated, fruity and slightly balsamic, it has soft and velvety tannins, a long and persistent finish.
Color: intense ruby red, with purple hues
Bouquet: elegant and complex, reminiscent of sour cherry; delicate references to violet and refined woody scents (cocoa, coffee); spicy finish of pepper and cloves.
Taste: warm attack and consistent in structure, complex and slightly balsamic fruit; lively and pleasantly fresh acidity, intriguing tannins, long finish and a spicy finish.
Curiosity: DOCG since 1990, with retroactive recognition starting from the 1983 harvest. Considered one of the best Italian reds, it is a wine that is a profound expression of Umbria, its hills and its people with a perfect harmony between power and elegance. Rubesco is a fancy brand, deriving from the Latin verb rubescere, to blush: a meaning therefore joyful. On the label a bas-relief depicting the grape harvest, a detail of the Fontana Maggiore in Perugia, the most beautiful fountain in the 13th century square.
