Rated 90
Sour melon combines with sweet smoke, hints of ground ginger and wet stone as the 2020 Cerasuolo d'Abruzzo Malandrino blossoms in the glass. It's softly textured with medium-bodied weight and a lovely inner sweetness, impressing more on its palate presence than definition of fruit. That said, this is decidedly red in nature, more than pink, yet boasts zesty acids that keep the expression lively and fresh throughout the finale.
