"Dusty and darkly floral, the 2016 Taurasi Renonno opens in the glass, mixing rosemary and shaved cedar with black currant aromas. It envelopes the palate with velvety textural waves of ripe fruit. A core of sour citrus and brisk acidity adds a reverberation of tension. The 2016 finishes spicy and with grippy Aglianico tannins. It's a bit short on fruit in its youthful stage, but I,m not worried because this powerhouse is built for the cellar."
