Mastroberardino Radici Taurasi DOCG 2015 Review

Get ready: You're gonna love this wine. But just make sure you're sitting down when you sip it because it's incredibly powerful and calls all your senses to attention. Your nose will be like, "wait, is that a leather store? Is that blackberry pie? Do I smell roses and tobacco shop?" You do, wine lover, you do. As for the palate, it's rich with a soft velvet touch that will grip you in an embrace before a slow, gentle release. Am I getting too poetic here? Give it a try and you'll see what I'm talking about.
