Puro Sangue is Tecce’s Taurasi Riserva bottling of pure radiating medieval pleasure; the chalice of wine as the blood of Christ. There’s nothing archaic here like in the Poliphemo bottling, but the wine is just as serious, with length tapers endlessly, offering generous fruit and spice, but also maintaining tension (we are still in the high-altitude Taurasi growing area of Paternopoli). The tannins are more honed here than in Poliphemo, making this wine seems somewhat more ceremonial tone.
