LA BELLA |
Color: Deep amber with green reflections, brillant and clear. Scent :: very agreeable and rich ; one might comment on the lingering
aroma of toasted cacao, vanilla, rancio and prunes.
Tasting:
the flavor is clear, with a certain fullness and balance, the
? ? (tanins) are very rich and carry suppleness. The presence of alcohol,
although rich, gives this " water of life " volume and avoids softness ;
the immedite aftertaste is of rancio then of cinnamon and liquorice ;
the taste persists in the mouth.
La Bella agrees well with a lemon pie and a cigar at the end of a meal. . |
