Vino Nobile di Montepulciano DOCG 'La Ciarliana' 2006

Tasted 19/01/11 at CLWS. 14.4% , ca. £17 UK retail (e.g. Majestic). This
is a rich and elegant 'mid-level' Nobile, that possible would benefit
from another 18 months age. Nose still a little closed - just a hint of
cherries and red fruits. A little tannic still but very complex, there's
a lot going on here - a layer of vanilla but great fruit and spice below
with a great finish. From 2012. 17.5/20
