Such transparancy

2005 Loredan Gasparini, Venegazzu Della Casa;

Deep ruby, pink rim. Green paprika, blackcurrants, blackberries, some pepper and spices, blueberries, behind a curtain of liquorice, a bit green and herbal, but somehow it just makes it more interesting, fresh and quite intence. Very elegant and balanced, a bit lean body, but layered and transparent, fresh acidity, ripe tannins, some cherry stones. Variant of the ugly duckling that you had barely heard of, seen or noticed, but when she/he got dressed up, everybody had to stop and pay attention, not because it was the most beautifull sight ever, but because it was beautifull enough, and quite interesting. Quite long finish. 84
