WTN: Saladini Pilastri Rosso Piceno 2003
Posted: Tue Jun 27, 2006 1:35 pm
A blend of Sangiovese and Montepulciano.
A nose of leather, cherry and burned wood.
Medium-weight, fairly rich, black cherry,chocolate, earthy, barnyard, mint, tart acidity and a fairly heavy bitter streak. With time the wine became quite harsh and it developed a bizarre iodine-blood pudding flavour. Hmm.
Purchased at $13.95 Canadian.
