Note di degustazione
The 2020 Carmignano Riserva Uva dei Colombi takes no prisoners, with a bouquet that boasts its new addition of Cabernet Franc: peppery florals and herbs, cedar shavings, cloves and dried strawberries form a truly seductive aromatic profile. This is a pure pleasure on the palate, velvety yet cool-toned with fresh acidity and polished wild berry fruits. Racy acidity keeps the energy remarkably high as the 2020 finishes structured and long, leaving hints of violet pastille and citrus-kissed blackberries to linger so long. Despite the 2020's youthful state, I simply can't help but want to return to this glass for more.

This is a blend of 70% Sangiovese, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Merlot. The Piaggia 2020 Carmignano Riserva (in a heavy glass bottle) shows an inky dark appearance with creamy aromas of dark fruit, cherry confit, sweet spice and pastry cream. There are background tones of balsam herb, dried herb and cola. This is a thickly concentrated Tuscan blend with substantial fruit weight and toasted oak tones, and it's quite full-bodied. 36,800 bottles were released.
The 2020 Carmignano Riserva Piaggia impresses with its understated power, lifting up with a delicate blend of dried roses and black cherries, complicated by cedary spice and hints of dark chocolate. This is pure elegance on the palate, seamlessly silky and soothing with depths of polished red and blue fruits that swirl, all energized by vibrant acidity. A web of fine tannins wraps the senses in youthful poise as the 2020 finishes impossibly long and staining, leaving notes of white pepper, licorice and violet inner florals to resonate. This is a dark and radiant beauty. The 2020 is a showstopper.
