Ottavianello "Lamo", Tenute Rubino
TASTING NOTES:
Lively, brilliant ruby red. The sun gets caught in the glass making it all the brighter. A bed of roses, between the liquorice sticks, the odd blackberry, nutmeg flowers and red cherries here and there. You’re tempted to just dive inside. This wine pays homage to Virgil, who passed away in Brindisi, taking its name from one of his characters, and he guides us neither to Purgatory nor to Hell. He leads us through this tasting journey, towards its liquid centre: flashes of fresh acidity, a tear in an otherwise finely woven canvas, which insists on accompanying us, impressing this immediate enjoyment to memory, without too many ifs and buts.
