Very deep intense purple colour. Intense, very complex, spicy, warm, essence of warm ripe plum nose with some earthy sandalwood notes. Dry, medium bodied, well structured, harmonious, slightly spicy, ripe plum flavours with a lingering, cedary, mocha-chocolate-tinged, somewhat earthy finish. Cabernet and Croatina are blended with Corvina and Rondinella all of which are dried for 20-30 days before fermentation. Has 15.5% alcohol and 12 g/L residual sugar with lot number L20717 on the lower part of the glass bottle. TONY ASPLER / 89-points / BEST BUY - Cedary-spicy nose of dried cherries; medium-bodied, dry, well-extracted, sweet ripe fruit, nicely balanced with fresh acidity. |

TASTING NOTE: The 2013 Ca'Linverno is made in a unique process in which grapes are left to shrivel and dry out on the vines until after winter (\"inverno\" in Italian). The wine is plump and juicy with high extract and an impressive level of aromatic intensity. You get those distinctive aromas of raisin, prune or dried fruit with sweet back-end notes of rum cake, mocha and spice. The wine offers very attractive thickness and roundness in terms of texture. There is noticeable residual sugar on the close. Score - 91 (Monica Larner, robertparker.com, May 31, 2017) |
