FRANK CORNELISSEN Rosso 'Munjbel Classico' 2016

Cornelissen's MunJebel Rosso is 100% Nerello Mascalese from several of his Cru's including Zottorinoto-Chiusa Spagnolo, Feudo di Mezzo-Porcaria, Crasà, and Piano dei Daini. The average vine age is 60 years. The wine itself has a very aromatic nose with pretty aromas of wild cherry, ripe plum, dark berries, crushed rock dust, hibiscus, followed by smoke, earth and leather. Very flavorful with lots of red fruits, this has soft elegant texture backed by firm tannins that lead into the long finish. I like this wine today, but it ideally it will benefit from a year or 2 of bottle age, and can be enjoyed over the next decade.
