Italian Stallion – 2015; Perissos Vineyard and Winery; Burnet Texas

This Italian varietal red blend of 25% each of Aglianico, Dolcetto, Montepulciano and Sangiovese is a knockout wine!  Five years of cellaring and aging and it still packs a lot of jammy fruit forward notes and a touch of nutmeg.  Your palate will be delighted with rich dark cherries, strawberry, and a touch of soft spices. This is an elegant, silky, smooth, and very well-balanced wine that deserves a special occasion and to be appreciated for the loveliness that embodies this beauty.  The medium finish and touch of leather is the added icing on the cake. Cheers to this Gold Medal winner of the 2017 Lone Star International Wine Competition! Without a doubt, we can still taste and see why this wine was such a glorious winner in the competition. Hands down, a true delight to still enjoy now if you have any bottles left. Bravo Perissos!
