2020 Rivera "Violante" Nero di Troia, Castel del Monte DOC, IT WC+ clone and just a hint ofFrom: Andria, Puglia, Italy Varietal: Nero di Troia Taste: In the glass, the wine shows a deep, saturated ruby core with purple highlights at the rim. Aromatically, it opens with notes of black cherry, wild blackberry, and dried violets, followed by undertones of pink peppercorn, tobacco leaf, and a slight herbal lift reminiscent of thyme and sage. The palate is medium bodied and focused, with a dark fruited core framed by firm, fine grained tannins.
