Niccolò V' Lunae Bosoni 2022
Niccolò V fra Lunae Bosoni er en rødvin fra Ligurien baseret på druerne Sangiovese, Merlot og Pollera Nera, der kommer fra vinmarker dyrket på grusjord. Den præsenterer sig med en rubinrød farve med violet refleksioner og udtrykker noter af krydderier, sort peber og kanel med et baggrund af læder og moden rød frugt. I smagen er den varm og meget indbydende, forførende med bløde tanniner og en let mineralisk finish.
The “Niccolò V” by Lunae Bosoni is a warm and seductive red wine, with great personality. A blend of three different varieties – Merlot, Pollera Nera, and Sangiovese – on the palate, it asserts itself with good minerality, ensuring a sip with a pleasantly dry finish. A label that arises from a deep understanding of the territory and local traditions, reinterpreted with a contemporary perspective to foresee the future, capable of surprising even in terms of longevity.
The “Niccolò V” Lunae Bosoni originates from the grapes of Sangiovese, Merlot, and Pollera Nera, an indigenous Ligurian variety mainly cultivated in the Lunigiana area. The vines of these varieties grow using the guyot system within stony soils, rich in skeleton, and the clusters are harvested around the middle and end of September. The must ferments in steel containers at a controlled temperature, remaining in contact with the skins for 12 days. The final maturation phase takes place first, for 12 months in oak barriques and then, once the bottling operations are completed, for another 6 months directly in glass.
The “Niccolò V” signed by the Lunae Bosoni winery presents itself visually with a ruby red color, characterized by some slight hues tending more towards purple, especially visible at the rim. The nose opens up to a whirlwind of spicy references, enriched by echoes of ripe fruit and hints of leather and tobacco. On the palate, it has excellent body, with a wide and enveloping sip, which unfolds delicately thanks to a tannic structure finely integrated into the overall framework. On the taste, a slight saltiness is perceived. An intense Ligurian red, ideal for pairing with game dishes and aged cheeses.
