Farnese Edizione 20 Cinque Autoctoni

This, Farnese’s ‘concept wine,’ is designed to show the excellence that can be derived by blending from across Italian regions and vintages. It comprises fruit (33% Montepulciano, 30% Primitivo, 25% Sangiovese, 7% Negroamaro, 5% Malvasia) from Abruzzo and Puglia, spends 13 months in barrel before release, and is bottled as non-vintage. Look for a deep, plush wine with notions of cherry, currants and spices.[The Berliner Wein Trophy competition did not include a tasting note.] Score – Gold. (Berliner Wein Trophy, 2021)
