Castello Banfi Aska Bolgheri Rosso 2019

Winery notes:

On the nose, Banfi's Aska Bolgheri Rosso presents an elegant and intense bouquet, with notes of ripe blackberry, black cherry, and dark plum. The aroma is enriched with spicy hints of black pepper, vanilla, and a subtle touch of oak. On the palate, this wine is full-bodied and velvety, with a soft and round tannic structure. The ripe fruit flavors of blackberry, cherry, and plum are complemented by the subtle notes of spice and vanilla, resulting in a well-balanced and harmonious wine. The finish is long and persistent, with a pleasant hint of sweetness that leaves a satisfying sensation in the mouth.

Critical acclaim:

"93 points. Notes of blackberries, dried thyme and lavender, cedar and baking spices. It’s full-bodied with firm tannins. Serious and structured with dark fruit and plums at the finish. Plenty of potential." - James Suckling
