The 2006 Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Riserva Bossona is a dark, full-throttle wine loaded with jammy dark fruit, smoke, tar and earthiness. This shows considerable richness and density at the outset, but the wine settles down nicely over time, turning more and more elegant in the glass. The 2006 Bossona needs several hours of aeration for all of the elements to come together. It is a beautiful Vino Nobile from Dei. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2021.
