Note di degustazione
Packaged with a white label, the 2014 Taurasi Riserva Radici opens to spice and savory notes with dried fruit, blackcurrant and dried cherry. In terms of mouthfeel, this Riserva is a bit leaner in the mid-palate (this is a common trait of the vintage); however, it does flesh out to power a polished mouthfeel with plenty of dark fruit and smoke. The tannins are integrated and spicy. Of the many wines Mastoberardino makes, this is probably the one marked for a nice, grilled steak.

The dark and brooding 2014 Taurasi Riserva Radici is geared for the cellar, yet already thrilling to taste. Here I’m finding a mix of crushed tart cherries, blackberry, and plums, offset by savory herbs, orange rind, and a hint of mocha. On the palate, velvety textures coat the senses, slowly giving way to a complex blend of citrus-tinged dark fruits and saline-minerals, as fine tannin saturates the senses. The finish is long and classically structured, clenching the palate, yet leaving a pretty display of spiced orange and inner florals. There are many years of evolution in store for the 2014 Riserva. The patient consumer will benefit from losing a few bottles in their cellar for at least five to ten years.
