The Taurasi DOCG Riserva "5 Querce" from Molettieri presents a deep ruby red with bright highlights. On the nose it shows a complex profile: ripe red and black fruits, sweet spice notes, hints of leather and undergrowth, and mineral nuances. On the palate it displays full body, tannins that are present but smoothed, and a measured balance between acidity and structure; the finish is long and persistent, with fruity echoes that enhance drinkability. The palate progression reveals a rich mid-palate and a saline thread that supports the sip. Overall it offers a sense of depth and harmony.

Versatile with food, it pairs well with structured meat dishes such as roasts, braises and stews, as well as aged cheeses and richly flavored preparations. To fully appreciate its aromas, some hours of aeration before serving are recommended; those who wish to cellar it can observe its development over time. A choice for those who seek an articulated, characterful wine without excess, to be enjoyed slowly.
