"Dark and moody in the glass, the 2014 Taurasi Riserva Cinque Querce wafts up with a bouquet of crushed fall leaves, tobacco and dried black cherry. It is soft and round on the palate with pretty red fruits yet lacking in the usual power and thrust of Cinque Querce. The 2014 leaves a coating of drying tannins offset by sour citrus and minerals hints. It will be interesting to follow the 2014, which will likely open sooner than the average Molettieri Taurasi, but don,t expect it to keep pace with better vintages. I remain conservative."
